Find the 2nd Derivative:<br> f(x) = 3x⁴ + 2x² - 8x + 4

ad-work [718]

Answer:

$f''(x)=36x^2+4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by finding the first derivative of $f(x)= 3x^4+2x^2-8x+4$ . We can do so by using the power rule for derivatives.

The power rule states that:

$\frac{d}{dx} (x^n) = n \times x^n^-^1$

This means that if you are taking the derivative of a function with powers, you can bring the power down and multiply it with the coefficient, then reduce the power by 1.

Another rule that we need to note is that the derivative of a constant is 0.

Let's apply the power rule to the function f(x).

$\frac{d}{dx} (3x^4+2x^2-8x+4)$

Bring the exponent down and multiply it with the coefficient. Then, reduce the power by 1.

$\frac{d}{dx} (3x^4+2x^2-8x+4) = ((4)3x^4^-^1+(2)2x^2^-^1-(1)8x^1^-^1+(0)4)$

Simplify the equation.

$\frac{d}{dx} (3x^4+2x^2-8x+4) = (12x^3+4x^1-8x^0+0)$
$\frac{d}{dx} (3x^4+2x^2-8x+4) = (12x^3+4x-8(1)+0)$

$\frac{d}{dx} (3x^4+2x^2-8x+4) = (12x^3+4x-8)$
$f'(x)=12x^3+4x-8$

Now, this is only the first derivative of the function f(x). Let's find the second derivative by applying the power rule once again, but this time to the first derivative, f'(x).

$\frac{d}{d} (f'x) = \frac{d}{dx} (12x^3+4x-8)$

$\frac{d}{dx} (12x^3+4x-8) = ((3)12x^3^-^1 + (1)4x^1^-^1 - (0)8)$

Simplify the equation.

$\frac{d}{dx} (12x^3+4x-8) = (36x^2 + 4x^0 - 0)$
$\frac{d}{dx} (12x^3+4x-8) = (36x^2 + 4(1) - 0)$
$\frac{d}{dx} (12x^3+4x-8) = (36x^2 + 4 )$

Therefore, this is the 2nd derivative of the function f(x).

We can say that: $f''(x)=36x^2+4$

No. This is not random sampling as the students chose are not chosen at random. Random sampling would be something done where each sample has equal probability of being chosen. Clearly this is not random sampling.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

how long is the ball in the air ?

that is the same as asking : after how many seconds will the ball hit the ground (= reach the height of 0) ?

so, that means we need to find the zero solution of h(t).

at what t is h(t) = 0 ?

when at least one of the factors is 0 :

2(-2 - 4t)(2t - 5)
