Derivate vs. Derivative: What's the Difference?

Derivative.

Resulting from or employing derivation

Derived; derivative.

Copied or adapted from others

Something derived; a derivative.

Something derived.

(obsolete) To derive.

(Linguistics) A word formed from another by derivation, such as electricity from electric.

Derived; derivative.

The limiting value of the ratio of the change in a function to the corresponding change in its independent variable.

To derive.

The instantaneous rate of change of a function with respect to its variable.

The slope of the tangent line to the graph of a function at a given point. Also called differential coefficient, fluxion.

(Chemistry) A compound derived or obtained from another and containing essential elements of the parent substance.

A financial instrument that derives its value from another more fundamental asset, as a commitment to buy a bond for a certain sum on a certain date.

Obtained by derivation; not radical, original, or fundamental.

Imitative of the work of someone else.

Referring to a work, such as a translation or adaptation, based on another work that may be subject to copyright restrictions.

(finance) Having a value that depends on an underlying asset of variable value.

Lacking originality.

Something derived.

(linguistics) A word that derives from another one.

(finance) A financial instrument whose value depends on the valuation of an underlying asset; such as a warrant, an option etc.

(chemistry) A chemical derived from another.

(calculus) One of the two fundamental objects of study in calculus (the other being integration), which quantifies the rate of change, tangency, and other qualities arising from the local behavior of a function.

The derived function of $f(x)$: the function giving the instantaneous rate of change of $f$; equivalently, the function giving the slope of the line tangent to the graph of $f$. Written $f\text{'}(x)$ or $\backslash frac\{df\}\{dx\}$ in Leibniz's notation, $\backslash dot\{f\}(x)$ in Newton's notation (the latter used particularly when the independent variable is time). Category:en:Functions

The value of such a derived function for a given value of its independent variable: the rate of change of a function at a point in its domain.

(Of more general classes of functions) Any of several related generalizations of the derivative: the directional derivative, partial derivative, Fréchet derivative, functional derivative, etc.

(generally) The linear operator that maps functions to their derived functions, usually written $D$; the simplest differential operator.

Obtained by derivation; derived; not radical, original, or fundamental; originating, deduced, or formed from something else; secondary; as, a derivative conveyance; a derivative word.

Hence, unoriginal (said of art or other intellectual products.

That which is derived; anything obtained or deduced from another.

A word formed from another word, by a prefix or suffix, an internal modification, or some other change; a word which takes its origin from a root.

A chord, not fundamental, but obtained from another by inversion; or, vice versa, a ground tone or root implied in its harmonics in an actual chord.

An agent which is adapted to produce a derivation (in the medical sense).

A derived function; a function obtained from a given function by a certain algebraic process.

A substance so related to another substance by modification or partial substitution as to be regarded as derived from it; thus, the amido compounds are derivatives of ammonia, and the hydrocarbons are derivatives of methane, benzene, etc.

The result of mathematical differentiation; the instantaneous change of one quantity relative to another; df(x)/dx

A financial instrument whose value is based on another security

(linguistics) a word that is derived from another word;
