The derivative of a function is a function that indicates how quickly another function is changing.
Derivative formula:

\frac{d}{d x} (a f (x)) = a \frac{d}{d x} (f (x))

, where a is a constant.

\frac{d x}{d x} = 1

Given function is

f (x) = 2 x

.
Distinguish the function in relation to x, we get

\frac{d}{d x} f (x) = \frac{d}{d x} (2 x) \Rightarrow \frac{d}{d x} f (x) = 2 \frac{d x}{d x} \Rightarrow \frac{d}{d x} f (x) = 2

Consequently, the derivative of 2x is 2.
