Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, first, let's use the product rule.

Derivative of uv is u'v + u v', so it gives:

f(x)=(x^3-2x+1)(x-3)=u(x) \cdot v(x)\\\\f'(x)=u'(x)v(x)+u(x)v'(x)\\\\ \text{ **** } u(x)=x^3-2x+1 \ \ \ so \ \ \ u'(x)=3x^2-2\\\\\text{ **** } v(x)=x-3 \ \ \ so \ \ \ v'(x)=1\\\\f'(x)=(3x^2-2)(x-3)+(x^3-2x+1)(1)\\\\f'(x)=3x^3-9x^2-2x+6 + x^3-2x+1\\\\\boxed{f'(x)=4x^3-9x^2-4x+7}

Now, we distribute the expression of f(x) and find the derivative afterwards.

f(x)=(x^3-2x+1)(x-3)\\\\=x^4-2x^2+x-3x^3+6x-4\\\\=x^4-3x^3-2x^2+7x-4 \ \ \ so\\ \\\boxed{f'(x)=4x^3-9x^2-4x+7}

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you

A line with a slope of o passes through the points (9, z) and (-7, 5). What is the value of z?
pogonyaev

Answer:

z = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

m = ∆y/∆x = y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

0 = y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁ = 5 - z / -7 - 9 = 5 - z / -16 →

5 - z / -16 = 0 → 5 - z / -16 × -16 = 0 × -16 → 5 - z = 0 →

5 - z - 5 = 0 - 5 → -z = -5 → z = 5

Lori buys a $400 certificate deposit that earns 1.8% interest compounded monthly how much will a cd be worth in six years
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

$1445.11

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to use would be:

F=P(1+r)^t

Where

F is the future amount (what we want to find)

P is the present (principal) amount (this is 400)

r is the rate of interest, monthly (1.8% or 0.018)

t is the time in months (6 years = 6 * 12 = 72)

Now substituting, we get:

F=P(1+r)^t\\F=400(1+0.018)^{72}\\F = 400(1.018)^{72}\\F=1445.11

After 6 years, the CD will be worth $1445.11
