1.Let f(x)=1−4x1+4x.
Then f′(5) is _____
and f′′(5) is ______
2.Use the chain rule to find the derivative of
5(−9x^8+9x^6)^16
You do not need to expand out your answer.
3.Use the chain rule to find the derivative of
10sqrt(2x^3+6x^6)
Type your answer without fractional or negative exponents. Use sqrt(x) for x√.
4.Given the function g(x)=6x^3−9x^2−216x, find the first derivative, g′(x).
g′(x)= _______
Notice that g′(x)=0 when x=−3, that is, g′(−3)=0.
Now, we want to know whether there is a local minimum or local maximum at x=−3, so we will use the second derivative test.
Find the second derivative, g"(x).
g"(x)= _______
Evaluate g"(−3).
g"(−3)=______
Based on the sign of this number, does this mean the graph of g(x) is concave up or concave down at x=−3?
[Answer either up or down -- watch your spelling!!]
At x=−3 the graph of g(x) is concave _______
Based on the concavity of g(x) at x=−3, does this mean that there is a local minimum or local maximum at x=−3?
[Answer either minimum or maximum -- watch your spelling!!]
At x=−3 there is a local _________
5.The function f(x)=2x^3−39x^2+180x−10 has two critical numbers.
The smaller one is x =________
and the larger one is x = _________
6.The function f(x)=(5x+6)e^(−2x) has one critical number. Find it.
x = __________
