Question

h(x)=f(g(x))
Find h'(1)
How would I do this? @Mathematics

Answer 1

it would be
\[f'(g(1))\times g'(1)\] so if you knew those numbers you could compute it.

Answer 2

Thanks for your help

Answer 3

I guess they wanted it like this because they didn't give any other values

Answer 4

if you don't have the numbers or the functions there is nothing you can compute

Answer 5

This is just the chain rule

Answer 6

yup

Answer 7

what is the function you need to find H prime of?

Answer 8

They didn't give a function so I was getting confused but I guess they wanted the basic steps of the chain rule. I don't know my textbook can be very confusing

Answer 9

Ohh there pretty much asking for this
H'(x) = f '(g(x)) g '(x)

Answer 10

ya but reaplacing the x with 1

Answer 11

yeah exactly

Answer 12

Stupid

Answer 13

this calc 2?

Answer 14

nope calc 1

Answer 15

I am in calc 3, its Calc 1, but with multiple variables soo...chain rule on a function with (X,Y,Z) variables, not bad good luck

Answer 16

Sounds pretty scary. I have another few months and I will also be taking calc3 YIKES
