Find the derivative of f(x) = -9/x at x = 6

F(x)=-9/x which is equal to:

f(x)=-9x^(-1)  So the power rule for differentiation is used...

Power rule:  f(x)=x^e, df/dx=ex^(e-1) so:

df/dx=-9(-1)x^(-1-1)

df/dx=9x^(-2)  or if you prefer...

df/dx=9/x^2

df/dx(6)=9/36=1/4

Identify the pattern and find the next number in the pattern. 0.8, 3.2 12.851.2
Savatey [412]
For this case we have the following sequence:
 0.8
 3.2
 12.8
 51.2
 This sequence can be written as:
 0.8 = 0.2 * 4 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 1
 3.2 = 0.2 * 16 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 2
 12.8 = 0.2 * 64 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 3
 51.2 = 0.2 * 256 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 4
 Therefore, we have that the generic expression for this case is:
 an = 0.2 * 4 ^ n
 Then, the next number is then:
 a5 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 5 = 0.2 * 1024 = 204.8
 answer
 the next number in the pattern is 204.8
