Answer:

f'(x) = 4 + 80x³

General Formulas and Concepts:

Calculus

The definition of a derivative is the slope of the tangent line.

We can take the derivative/distribute it over addition and subtraction.

Basic Power Rule:

f(x) = cxⁿ
f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define function

f(x) = 4x + 20x⁴

Step 2: Find 1st derivative

Basic Power Rule (1st term): f'(x) = 4 · 1x¹⁻¹ + 20x⁴
Basic Power Rule (2nd term): f'(x) = 4 · 1x¹⁻¹ + 20 · 4x⁴⁻¹
Simplify: f'(x) = 4 + 80x³

Can someone explain this? :)

I'll do part (a) to get you started.

The angle 'a' pairs up with the 123 degree angle as a corresponding angle pair. Due to the parallel lines, the corresponding angles are congruent. Therefore a = 123.

We also see that b = 123 as well since a = b (they are vertical angles).

Notice how angle c is adjacent to the 123 degree angle. These two angles form a straight line, so they must add to 180 degrees.

c+123 = 180

c = 180-123

c = 57

-------------------------

To summarize, we have these three angles

a = 123

b = 123

c = 57

Solve the system by the elimination method.

REY [17]

Answer: C is correct, 4x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

You will add the two equations...

4x-8=0

Now you need to move the -8 over, which reverses its sign to positive.

4x=8

Evaluate: 6-(2/3)^2 A. 17/3 B. 52/3 C. 49/9 D. 50/9

Answer:

The correct answer is: "Option [D]".

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi student, let me help you out!

....................................................................................................................................

Let's use the acronym PEMDAS. With the help of this little acronym, we will not make mistakes in the Order of Operations! :)

$\dag\textsf{Acronym \: PEMDAS}$

P=Parentheses,

E=Exponents,

M=Multiplication,

D=Division,

A=Addition,

S=Subtraction.

Now let's start evaluating our expression, which is $\mathsf{6-(\cfrac{2}{3})^2}$

According to PEMDAS, the operation that we should perform is "E-Exponents".

Notice that we have a fraction raised to a power. When this happens, we raise both the numerator (2 in this case) and the denominator (3 in this case) to that power, which is 2. After this we obtain $\mathsf{6-\cfrac{4}{9}}$ .

See, we raised both the numerator and the denominator to the power of 2.

Now what we should do is subtract fractions.

Note that 6 and -4/9 have unlike denominators. First, let's write 6 as a fraction: $\mathrm{\cfrac{6}{1}-\cfrac{4}{9}}$ . Now let's multiply the denominator and the numerator of the first fraction times 9: $\mathrm{\cfrac{54}{9}-\cfrac{4}{9}}$ .

See, now the fractions have the same denominator. All we should do now is subtract the numerators: $\mathrm{\cfrac{50}{9}}$ .
