Need help with a calculus problem. Problem in comments

Check what h'(x) is in general. The problem states that in this particular case, h'(x) = f(x)*g'(x), so what does that tell you about f'(x)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In general you have h(x)=g(x).f(x) if we differentiate h'(x) we have h'(x)=g'(x)f(x)+g(x)f'(x) which is given to us like this h'(x)=g'(x)f(x) so what does this mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so f'(x)=0 yes?

OpenStudy (loser66):

I agree with you. @katiestyles212

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if f'(x)=0 what does that mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in kind of functions give us zero if we differentiate them?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have no idea. I thought f(x) would equal 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmm yes it would be 1 but do you understand why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f' always tell us information about f(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes I got it now, thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm Ok! np
