zepdrix (zepdrix):
\(\large\rm (uv)'=u'v+uv'\)
Product rule, ya?
And then just evaluate everything at 0.
\(\large\rm (uv)'(0)=u'(0)v(0)+u(0)v'(0)\)
Plugging in the stuff they gave you.
zepdrix (zepdrix):
\[\large\rm (uv)'=-5(-1)+8(4)\]Understand that first one?
OpenStudy (ashvad):
Oh yes! Hold on, give me a second to try them/write them down and see what I get... (Working this through my mind)
OpenStudy (ashvad):
Okay, so yes, the first one is 37.

Yes.
OpenStudy (ashvad):
The next should I use the quotient rule?
zepdrix (zepdrix):
Yes.
OpenStudy (ashvad):
Would the next be -27?
zepdrix (zepdrix):
Ummm, yes good!

is the next: 27/64?
OpenStudy (ashvad):
Oh! And I think I figured out the last one using the addition subtraction rule that the deriv of the sum/difference of two functions is the sum/difference of the derivatives, and multiplied it out to get 30!
