Proof of the Product Rule of Differentiation

Proof of the Product Rule of Differentiation

Assume the functions are differentiable on suitable open intervals, with the composite argument in the domain of the outer function.

Let \({\mathrm{h}(x) = \mathrm{f}(x)\mathrm{g}(x)}\). Show that \({\mathrm{h}'(x) = \mathrm{f}'(x)\mathrm{g}(x) + \mathrm{f}(x)\mathrm{g}'(x)}\).
