Derivative
The Casio Algebra FX2.0 can compute the derivative of a function and the derivative evaluated at a point.
Derivative of a Function, CAS Screen
Press
MENU 9 to access the CAS screen. Press F2
to access the CALC menu. Press 1 to select 1:diff. This pastes the
diff( prompt in the entry line of the CAS screen. Use the syntax
diff(expression,variable)
For
example, differentiate 4x 4 + 3x with respect
to x. In the entry line after the diff( prompt, type:
4 X ^ 4 + 3 X , X ) EXE
Hence, (4x 4 + 3x)' = 16x 3 + 3.
While
in the CAS screen, one may obtain higher derivatives and evaluate derivatives.
For a higher derivative, use the syntax diff(expression, variable, n) where n
is the order of the derivative. For example, let’s find the second derivative
of y = 3x 3 - x + 7. In the entry line,
after the diff( prompt, type
3 X ^ 3 - X + 7 , X , 2 ) EXE
Hence, (3x 3 - x + 7)" = 18x.
To evaluate an nth order derivative at x =a, use the syntax diff(expression, variable, n, a). For example, to calculate the second derivative of y = 3x 3 - x + 7 at x = 4, enter diff(3X^3-X+7,X,2,4). To find the derivative of 4x 4 + 3x at x = 2, enter diff(4X^4+3,X,1,2).
Derivative of a Function at a Point, RUN-MAT Screen
Press
MENU 1 to access the RUN-MAT screen, then
press OPTN to see the MAT options. Press F4 to access the CALC menu, then
either press 1 or EXE to select 1:d/dx.
This pastes the d/dx( prompt in the entry line of the home screen. Use the syntax
d/dx(expression,a)
where a is the number at which you want the derivative evaluated.
For
example, differentiate 
and evaluate the derivative at x = 0. After the d/dx( prompt in the entry
line, type
2nd
( X + 1 ) , 0 ) EXE
The derivative of 
at x = 0 is 0.5.
