Differentiation: definition and basic derivative rules

Today we will define Differentiation. Before calculus, there was no way to find the slope at a particular value, however using the concept of a limit, it is possible to make sense of this. The derivative has numerous applications in business and finance, physics, and many other areas, as we will see later in this course.
