Assume that f(x) and g(x) are differentiable functions about which we know very little.  In fact, assume that all we know about these functions is the following table of data:

x

f(x)

f ‘(x)

g(x)

g ‘ (x)

This isn’t a lot of information.  For example, we can’t compute f ‘ (3) with any degree of accuracy.  But we are still able to figure some things out, using the rules of differentiation.
