Real power series/Derivative by formal derivative/Fact

From Wikiversity

Let

g(x):=n=0anxn

denote a power series which converges on the open interval ]r,r[, and represents there a function f:]r,r[.

Then the formally differentiated power series
g~(x):=n=1nanxn1

is convergent on ]r,r[. The function f is differentiable in every point of the interval, and

f(x)=g~(x)
holds.
