see,


x+x+x+x.......................................................xtimes=x^2


differentiating wrt x


1+1+1...................1 times =2 x


x=2x    how is this possible?

x(x)=x^2

We goiitians have already discussed this earlier. U r assuming x to be an integer or in fact, a constant function. Then how can u differentiate with respect to x ?

Thats the answer. U cant differentiate wrt x

x can be written as x^2 only if x is a natural no.


sfor example you can't add 2/3 2/3 times


hence on differentiating you will get 0=0
