What does f'' mean?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Doesn't it mean the second derivative?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it means f prime

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it does

OpenStudy (mertsj):

I know how you read it but what does it mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the way he taught it in class he said it is the rate of change so its just opposite of those numbers

OpenStudy (mertsj):

yes. rate of change...acceleration

OpenStudy (mertsj):

So f' is velocity and f is distance

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ook so its not asking for a numerical answer?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

f'=2x, f=x^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i guess im asking how did you get that answer

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Since you have not yet studied integration, I would say by inspection.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

....... this problem makes no sense since he doesn't know integration. ask your teacher how you're supposed to solve it
