use chain rule :
\(h(x) =g[f(3x)] \\ h'(x) = ... ?\)
hartnn (hartnn):
example :
\(\Large j(x) = f[(k(4x+9))] \\ \Large j'(x) = 4f'[k(4x+9)]k'(4x+9)\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3f'(3x)g'(f(3x))
hartnn (hartnn):
yesh
now to get
\(\Large h'(1)\)
plug in x=1
hartnn (hartnn):
in your answer

h?
hartnn (hartnn):
whats your doubt?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohh! didnt see the second thing you wrote
hartnn (hartnn):
to find \(h'(1) \\ from ~~h'(x) \\ plug ~ in~ x=1\)
hartnn (hartnn):
okk :)

3f'(3)g'(f(3))
hartnn (hartnn):
now get f(3) from the table
hartnn (hartnn):
f(3) is in f(x) when x=3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i plug in 3 for f?
hartnn (hartnn):
you see f(x) row
get the value in the column where x=3
that gives you f(3)

I think, that:
\[h'(1)=\lim _{f(3x)\rightarrow f(3)}\frac{ g(f(3x))-g(f(3)) }{ f(3x)-f(3) }*\]
\[*\lim _{y \rightarrow 3}\frac{ f(y)-f(3) }{ y-3 }*\lim _{x \rightarrow1}\frac{ 3x-3 }{ x-1 }=...\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
which is 2 right? @hartnn
hartnn (hartnn):
yes
f(3) = 2
hartnn (hartnn):
still wondering what michele did
hartnn (hartnn):
from the same table find
f'(3) too

I have applied the definition of derivative of composite function, and that I change variable in limit operations
hartnn (hartnn):
3f'(3)g'(f(3))
= 3 (1) g'(2) = ..
whats g'(2) =
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5(:
hartnn (hartnn):
= 3 (1) g'(2) = 3(1)(5) = 15
Michele, you get 15 too?

which is equal to my result, since:
\[h'(1)=g'(f(3))*f'(3)*3=5*1*3=15\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
same answer , different method(: thank you guys!!
hartnn (hartnn):
thanks for the alternate method Michele :D
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
thanks! @hartnn @mondona
