In this post, First of  all about derivatives and the various applications of derivatives. Derivative can be described as the slope at a point on a line around the curve and it is the most basic tool of calculus. It is also the rate of change at which one quantity changes with respect to another.

How to find extrema using the First and Second Derivative Tests. Use derivatives to solve Optimisation problems. Investigate velocity, acceleration and speed as well as the graph of the derivative.

Therefore applications of derivative use in equations as well as graph.
