DERIVATIVES, help plz.. http://puu.sh/1bNGR

zepdrix (zepdrix):

h(x)=10f(x) Hmm so if we take the derivative of both sides, with respect to x: h'(x)=10f'(x) And they told us that f'(2)=2 Can you solve for h'(2) from that info? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since f'(2) is given so h'(x)=10f'(x) h'(2)=10f'(2) just plug in the value of f'(2).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is f'(x)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plz help i need it really urgent :S

zepdrix (zepdrix):

read sami's comment :d it should be pretty straight forward how to solve it..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean f(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f'(x) is derivative of f(x).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea, what is it :S

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Well, we don't need to know the actual function in this case. We just use this information. h'(x)=10f'(x) h'(2)=10f'(2) f'(2)=2 Plug that into the second equation :d and solve for h'(2)

zepdrix (zepdrix):

You're thinking about this too hard :\ Think of f'(2) as a variable if that helps. h'(2)=10A A=2 Solve for h'(2)...
