Theorem 1.4
Let F ∈ ℕ. Then
4 I
! = F! I/J
4!
Proof:
Suppose for some K ∈ ℕ,
4 L
! = K! L/J .
4!
This assumption is valid since we have proven this to be true for K = 1 ∈ ℕ. Notice that
4 4 J
!= ! = 1!J/7 = 1! 7 = 1(1) = 1.
4! 4!
Let F = K + 1 ∈ ℕ and (!) = ! I , then

But by assumption, $% ! L = K! L/J . Hence,

Let S(!) = P"(!)Q. Then

Let ΔT = "(! + Δ!) − "(!). Notice that as Δ! → 0, ΔT → 0 by the continuity of " (since
" is differentiable by hypothesis). Hence,

Example 2.1
$
Evaluate $% (2! + 1)B
Proof:
Let S(!) = (2! + 1)B , (!) = ! B and "(!) = 2! + 1. Notice that S(!) = P"(!)Q.
Hence,
S & (!) = & P"(!)Q"& (!) (1.1)
By Theorem 1.4,
& (!)
= 2!
Hence,
&
P"(!)Q = 2"(!) = 2(2! + 1) = 4! + 2 (1.2)
On the other hand, by Theorem 1.1 (ii), (1.2), and (1.3),
"& (!) = 2 (1.3)
Therefore, substituting (1.2) and (1.3) to (1.1)
S & (!) = (4! + 2)(2) = 8! + 4
If Y ∈ ℤ/ , then

where −Y ∈ ℕ. Hence, by quotient rule, constant rule and Theorem 1.4,
/\ 4 4 /\
4 \ ! '4! (1)- − 1 _4! ! `
! =
4! ! /B\
! /\ (0) − (−Y! /\/J )
=

Y! /\/J

!

Case 4:
f
a
Suppose Y = , where c, e ∈ ℤ, e ≠ 0. Let "(!) = ! \ = ! g and define (!) = ! b .
b
Notice that & (!) = e! b/J . Hence, by the chain rule of differentiation,
4
P"(!)Q = &
P"(!)Q"& (!)
4!
a b/J
= e _! b ` "& (!)
a
= e _! a/b ` "& (!). (2.1)
Furthermore, since
b
P"(!)Q = P"(!)Q
= (! \ )b
a b
= _! b `
= !a ,
Then,
4
P"(!)Q = c! a/J .
4!
(2.2)
Hence, by (2.1) and (2.2),
a
e _! a/b ` "& (!) = c! a/J
c! a/J
"& (!) = a
e _! a/b `
c (a/J)/_a/a`
