<p>We can demonstrate the derivative of e^8 using basic differentiation rules. Since e^8 is a constant, its derivative is straightforward: By Definition The derivative of a constant function is defined to be 0. Therefore, for f(x) = e^8, f'(x) = 0. Using the Limit Definition To prove using the limit definition, consider f(x) = e^8. The derivative is expressed as: f'(x) = lim(h→0) [f(x + h) - f(x)] / h = lim(h→0) [e^8 - e^8] / h = lim(h→0) 0 / h = 0 Hence, proved that the derivative of e^8 is 0.</p>

<h2>Higher-Order Derivatives of e^8</h2>

<p>When a constant function like e^8 is differentiated<a>multiple</a>times, the result remains 0 for all higher-order derivatives. To understand this concept, consider the following: For the first derivative of a function, we write f′(x), which indicates how the function changes or its slope at a certain point. For e^8, f′(x) = 0. The second derivative, derived from the first derivative, is denoted as f′′(x) and remains 0. Similarly, the third derivative, f′′′(x), and any nth derivative of e^8 are also 0.</p>
