Derivatives using limit definition - Practice problems!

Do you find computing derivatives using the limit definition to be hard? In this video we work through five practice problems for computing derivatives using the limit definition of derivatives. We go from simple to advanced, and show you all the tricks you need to conquer these types of problems!

Quick links to each problem:

You’ve saved me a lot of time. This video is more informative then my Calc professor by several times over and it lasted 5 times less then class.

Wow this really helped me unlike the others... haha it’s just because, our teacher gives us easy examples to follow during the discussion but when we’re going to look and answer out activity sheet? It is COMPLETELY different

LOVED THIS!! I love how you made math seem simpler, really going in depth on each step that's being taken.

Oh my god! I finally understand what to do now. This video is wonderful.

Dang you just summed up what I was struggling with for two weeks in calculus class in 14 minutes. Thank you so much this video is a godsend. Starting simple then escalating the difficulty really helps grasp what to do and why, in class we just started with the more difficult problems so I was lost on some of the earlier steps.

Haven’t even started the derivative in my high school calc class and already pretty much know how to do it. This is great.

Wow... By far the best video I have found on this. The way you show the colors moving as a way to show where you are getting the numbers from is great and it is super easy to follow. Thank you!

I was absent when my class was learning about the derivative limit function. I just learned all the tricks, like chain rule, product rule, etc. Now I need to know how to find derivatives with this function years later for a final, so thanks!

I haven’t done calc in three years... this was easy to follow.

[johnpeter]

Perfect explanation...indeed if you can't explain it to a 2year old its all on nothing..
Thanks sir.God bless you..

Thank you so much this should have more views.

I really appreciate how this man shows all of his steps even if it is simple adding and subtracting. It helps me from getting lost.

i don’t get why teachers can’t teach it like this! great vid 😭

[elisusser]

Life saver for my first calc exam this week, u da man!!

[petrakamm]

Definitely safed my life, thank you so much, I had no idea how to do this before...

[ankesh_]

Thanks for this. Extremly good teacher.

[kfc]

I was stuck on the conjugate part but you really helped thank you so much!!

[AlexandraAppleby]

Thanks for this! Hopefully this will save me from failing my exam I have in two hours :)

I found it too easier to work out THANK YOU
