Answer:
2.4x - 4.4
Step-by-step explanation:
0.3(4x – 8) – 0.5(–2.4x + 4)
1.2x - 2.4 + 1.2x -2
2.4x - 4.4

Answer:
3, in both a), b)
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The slope of the line tangent to the curve that passes through the point (2,-10) is equal to the derivative of p at x=2.
Using differentiation rules (power rule and sum rule), the derivative of p(x) for any x is
. In particular, the value we are looking for is
.
If you would like to compute the equation of the tangent line, we can use the point-slope equation to get 
b) The instantaneus rate of change is also equal to the derivative of P at the point x=2, that is, P'(2). This is equal to
.
When multiplying variables with exponents, all you have to do is to add the exponents and that’s the ‘product.’
So;
(3y^10)(2y^2) is equal to (3)(2)(y^10+2).
6y^12/8y^5
When dividing exponents, you do the opposite and subtract the exponents. And you divide the whole number by half.
6y^12/8y^5 = 3y^7/4
