What is the derivative of e^(2x)

1 answer:

5 0

Using the chain rule: The derivative of e^u is (e^u)(u'). Notice that e^u is rewritten exactly as is and then multiplied by the derivative of the exponent.
Let u=2x. So u'=2
So the derivative of e^u is e^(2x)*2 This can also be written as 2e^(2x).

Answer:

A total of 15 cups of punch.

Step-by-step explanation:

20% ( or 0.20) of the punch is pineapple juice so if you have 3 cups of this juice, by proportion, you can make 3 / 0.20 = 15 cups

Answer:

The answer to your question is: (2a - 1) / 4

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{12a^{2} - 3}{2} (2a + 1)^{-2} ( \frac{6}{(2a +1)^{-1} } \\$

$\frac{3(4a^{2} -1)}{2} \frac{1}{(2z + 1)^{2} } (\frac{2a + 1)}{6}$

$\frac{3(2a + 1)(2a- 1) (2a + 1)}{12(2a + 1)(2a + 1)}$

$\frac{(2a - 1)}{4}$

Implicit Differentiation

The derivative of a constant is equal to 0

Basic Power Rule:

f(x) = cxⁿ
f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Product Rule: $\frac{d}{dx} [f(x)g(x)]=f'(x)g(x) + g'(x)f(x)$

Chain Rule: $\frac{d}{dx}[f(g(x))] =f'(g(x)) \cdot g'(x)$

Quotient Rule: $\frac{d}{dx} [\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} ]=\frac{g(x)f'(x)-g'(x)f(x)}{g^2(x)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

-xy - 2y = -4

Rate of change of the tangent line at point (-1, 4)

Step 2: Differentiate Pt. 1

Find 1st Derivative

Implicit Differentiation [Product Rule/Basic Power Rule]: $-y - xy' - 2y' = 0$
[Algebra] Isolate y' terms: $-xy' - 2y' = y$
[Algebra] Factor y': $y'(-x - 2) = y$
[Algebra] Isolate y': $y' = \frac{y}{-x-2}$
[Algebra] Rewrite: $y' = \frac{-y}{x+2}$

Step 3: Find y

Define equation: $-xy - 2y = -4$
Factor y: $y(-x - 2) = -4$
Isolate y: $y = \frac{-4}{-x-2}$
Simplify: $y = \frac{4}{x+2}$

Step 4: Rewrite 1st Derivative

[Algebra] Substitute in y: $y' = \frac{-\frac{4}{x+2} }{x+2}$
[Algebra] Simplify: $y' = \frac{-4}{(x+2)^2}$

Step 5: Differentiate Pt. 2

Find 2nd Derivative

Differentiate [Quotient Rule/Basic Power Rule]: $y'' = \frac{0(x+2)^2 - 8 \cdot 2(x + 2) \cdot 1}{[(x + 2)^2]^2}$
[Derivative] Simplify: $y'' = \frac{8}{(x+2)^3}$

Step 6: Find Slope at Given Point

[Algebra] Substitute in x: $y''(-1) = \frac{8}{(-1+2)^3}$
[Algebra] Evaluate: $y''(-1) =8$
