Answer:

a) f'(x)=6

b) f'(x)=12

c) f'(x)=2kx

Step-by-step explanation:

To find :  From the definition of the derivative find the derivative for each of the following functions ?

Solution :

Definition of the derivative is

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0}(\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h})

Applying in the functions,

a) f(x)=6x

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0}(\frac{6(x+h)-6x}{h})

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0}(\frac{6x+6h-6x}{h})

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0}(\frac{6h}{h})

f'(x)=6

b) f(x)=12x-2

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0}(\frac{12(x+h)-2-(12x-2)}{h})

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0}(\frac{12x+12h-2-12x+2}{h})

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0}(\frac{12h}{h})

f'(x)=12

c) f(x)=kx^2 for k a constant

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0}(\frac{k(x+h)^2-kx^2}{h})

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0}(\frac{k(x^2+h^2+2xh-kx^2)}{h})

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0}(\frac{kx^2+kh^2+2kxh-kx^2}{h})

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0}(\frac{h(kh+2kx)}{h})

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0}(kh+2kx)

f'(x)=2kx

Given the formula C= 1/2t(c1-c2), solve for t.
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

t=\frac{2C}{c1-c2}

Step-by-step explanation:

C=\frac{1}{2}t(c1-c2)\\2(C)=2(\frac{1}{2}t(c1-c2))\\2C=t(c1-c2)\\\frac{2C}{c1-c2}=\frac{t(c1-c2)}{c1-c2}\\t=\frac{2C}{c1-c2}
