Here are some examples. The first two lines show the derivatoves we've already worked out in the Lagrange notation.

The right part of the second line shows how much clearer things can become when we assume that we know which variable is dependent on which. The notation is more ambiguous, but a lot clearer.

The third line shows the benefit of indicating the independent variable. The variables a, b, c are indicated with letters in the function, but we treat them as constants: x is the only variable we change to observe the resulting change in the function above the line. The rest is treated the same way as the 3 in the exponent is.
