[parent] proof of sum rule (Proof)


$\displaystyle \ensuremath{\frac{\ensuremath{\mathrm{d}}}{\ensuremath{\mathrm{d}x}}}\left[f(x)+g(x)\right]$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle \lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(x+h)+g(x+h)-f(x)-g(x)}{h}$  
  $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle \lim_{h\to0}\left[\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}+\frac{g(x+h)-g(x)}{h}\right]$  
  $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle f'(x) + g'(x)$
