Find the derivative of f(x) = 3/x at x = 1

Mathematics

Answer:

- 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Differentiate f(x) using the power rule

\frac{d}{dx}(ax^{n} ) = nax^{n-1}

Given f(x) = \frac{3}{x} = 3x^{-1}, then

f'(x) = - 3x^{-2} = - \frac{3}{x^2}

f'(1) = - \frac{3}{1} = - 3

Answer:

12a. Addition = 7y⁵ + 7y³ – 6y – 5

12b. Subtraction = – y⁵ – 3y³ + 8y + 11

13a. Addition = 5x⁴ + x³ – 6x² + 8x + 17

13b. Subtraction = – x⁴ – 9x³ –6x² + 8x + 3

14a. Addition = – 2b⁴ + b³ – 11b² – 1

14b. Subtraction = 4b⁴ + 7b³ – b² + 8b – 1

15a. Addition = m⁵ + m⁴ + m³ + m²

15b. Subtraction = m⁵ – m⁴ – m³ – m² – 10

16a. Addition = 4x⁴ + 12x³ + 18x² + 16x + 4

16b. Subtraction = 4x⁴ – 4x³ + 14x² – 16x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

12a. Addition

.. 3y⁵ + 2y³ + y + 3

+ (4y⁵ + 5y³– 7y – 8)

————————————

= 7y⁵ + 7y³ – 6y – 5

12b. Subtraction

.. 3y⁵ + 2y³ + y + 3

– (4y⁵ + 5y³– 7y – 8)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= – y⁵ – 3y³ + 8y + 11

13a. Addition

.. 2x⁴ – 4x³ – 6x² + 8x + 10

+ (3x⁴ + 5x³ +...................+ 7)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= 5x⁴ + x³ – 6x² + 8x + 17

13b. Subtraction

.. 2x⁴ – 4x³ – 6x² + 8x + 10

– (3x⁴ + 5x³ +...................+ 7)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= – x⁴ – 9x³ – 6x² + 8x + 3

14a. Addition

...... b⁴ + 4b³ – 6b² + 4b – 1

+ (– 3b⁴ – 3b³ – 5b² – 4b)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= – 2b⁴ + b³ – 11b² – 1

14b. Subtraction

...... b⁴ + 4b³ – 6b² + 4b – 1

– (– 3b⁴ – 3b³ – 5b² – 4b)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= 4b⁴ + 7b³ – b² + 8b – 1

15a. Addition

... m⁵ + m³ – 5

+ (m⁴ + m² + 5)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= m⁵ + m⁴ + m³ + m²

15b. Subtraction

... m⁵ + m³ – 5

– (m⁴ + m² + 5)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= m⁵ – m⁴ – m³ – m² – 10

16a. Addition

.... 4x⁴ + 8x³ + 16x² + 4

+ (4x³ + 2x² + 16x)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= 4x⁴ + 12x³ + 18x² + 16x + 4

16b. Subtraction

.... 4x⁴ + 8x³ + 16x² + 4

– (4x³ + 2x² + 16x)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= 4x⁴ – 4x³ + 14x² – 16x + 4
