Statement flagged by 0 users
Reason: Clean-dependency layer: constants, sum, constant multiple, and product rules for one-dimensional derivatives; replaces lem:derivative-continuity-rules-1d-2026a, which cites a redacted continuity definition. Grounded in def:real-numbers-2026a.

Statement

Let R\mathbb{R} be the real numbers. Let IRI\subseteq\mathbb{R} be an interval, let f,g:IRf,g:I\to\mathbb{R}, let cRc\in\mathbb{R}, and let x0Ix_0\in I be an interior point of II. Here f+gf+g, cfcf and fgfg denote the pointwise sum, scalar multiple and product on II, given by (f+g)(z)=f(z)+g(z)(f+g)(z)=f(z)+g(z), (cf)(z)=cf(z)(cf)(z)=c\,f(z) and (fg)(z)=f(z)g(z)(fg)(z)=f(z)\,g(z).

Then the following hold.

1. (Constants) For every bRb\in\mathbb{R}, the function on II with constant value bb is differentiable at x0x_0 with derivative 00.

2. (Sum and constant multiple) If ff and gg are differentiable at x0x_0, then f+gf+g and cfcf are differentiable at x0x_0, with

(f+g)(x0)=f(x0)+g(x0),(cf)(x0)=cf(x0).(f+g)'(x_0)=f'(x_0)+g'(x_0),\qquad (cf)'(x_0)=c\,f'(x_0).

3. (Product rule) If ff and gg are differentiable at x0x_0, then fgfg is differentiable at x0x_0, with

(fg)(x0)=f(x0)g(x0)+f(x0)g(x0).(fg)'(x_0)=f'(x_0)\,g(x_0)+f(x_0)\,g'(x_0).
