A formula or rule for computing derivative of composition of two or more functions is known as

  • A.product rule
  • B.composition rule
  • C.chain rule
  • D.distribution rule

Answer: C

The chain rule differentiates a composition of functions:

\[ \frac{d}{dx}f\big(g(x)\big) = f'\big(g(x)\big) \cdot g'(x) \]

The product rule handles a product of functions, \( (uv)' = u'v + uv' \), which is a different situation entirely.
