Question

differentiate F(x)=3x^2 +4x+100.

Answer 1

Hi.. hal_stirrup... use the formula for the derivative of x^n for this algebraic equation.. such that ..

The forumla says, derivative of x^n is n * x^ (n-1)
F ' (x)= 3 ( derivative of x^2) + 4 (derivative of x) + (derivative of 100)

= 3 (2x) + 4 * 1 + 0
= 6x+4
