Solve w = p/2-h - ScanMath

Simplify

w = \frac{p}{2} - h

Find the first partial derivative by treating the variable h as a constant and differentiating with respect to p

\frac{\partial w}{\partial p} = \frac{\partial}{\partial p} (\frac{p}{2} - h)

Use differentiation rule \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (f (x) \pm g (x)) = \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (f (x)) \pm \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (g (x))

\frac{\partial w}{\partial p} = \frac{\partial}{\partial p} (\frac{p}{2}) - \frac{\partial}{\partial p} (h)

Evaluate

More Steps

\frac{\partial w}{\partial p} = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{\partial}{\partial p} (h)

Use \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (c) = 0 to find derivative

\frac{\partial w}{\partial p} = \frac{1}{2} - 0

Solution

\frac{\partial w}{\partial p} = \frac{1}{2}
