$derivdef\left(a^2- 16\right)$
Learn how to solve problems step by step online. Find the derivative of (8-a)^2=a^2-4^2 using the definition. Calculate the power 4^2. Multiply -1 times 16. Find the derivative of a^2-16 using the definition. Apply the definition of the derivative: \displaystyle f'(x)=\lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}. The function f(x) is the function we want to differentiate, which is a^2-16. Substituting f(x+h) and f(x) on the limit, we get. Multiply the single term -1 by each term of the polynomial \left(a^2-16\right).
