LaTeX Why Do My LaTeX Inputs Only Work with Four Dollar Signs in the Forum?

[Lambda96]

I have unfortunately a problem, if I make my inputs only with two dollar signs, that these are not indicated, but only with 4 dollar signs.

Unfortunately, I cannot make my latex inputs in the text in such a way, like e.g.

The formula is as follows $f(x)=x^2$, form the derivative of this formula.

Hi,

Not clear to me what is going wrong... the delimiters for in-line math are $and for displayed math So you type "The formula is as follows f(x)=x^2 and ... " and you get: f(x)=x^2 and ... And if you type "The formula is as follows$f(x)=x^2$and ... " you get:$f(x)=x^2$and ...$\ ##
