I am supposed to prove that δ'(ax) = (1/a)*(1/|a|)*δ'(x) but I cannot figure out where the (1/a) term comes from. Using the scaling theorem I know that δ(ax) = (1/|a|)*δ(x), but how does this apply to the first derivative and does it explain where the (1/a) comes from?
The problem is to prove that δ'(ax) = (1/a)*(1/a)*δ'(x), where a is a constant. I tried applying the scaling theorem with the formal definition of δ'(x) but I can not get the second (1/a) term. Does anyone have some insight on this problem? Thank you...
