Hi there!

The derivative of the function is the slope of the function at a specific x-value, or its instantaneous rate of change.

For example, take the equation y = x².

Using the power rule, we get:

y' = 2x

If we plug in any x-value into this equation, we can find the slope of the function at any point.

Ex:

x = 0; 2(0) = slope of 0

x = 2; 2(2) = slope of 4

Answer:

0.1667

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6! ways to arrange the hats. The number of ways for which no guest will receive the proper hat is 5! (since there are 5 wrong hats for the first guest, 4 for the second guest, and so on). The probability that no guest will receive the proper hat is:

$P=\frac{5!}{6!}=0.1667$
