Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
g(x) = 8 - 10cos(x)
x = 0
<u>Step 2: Differentiate</u>
- Differentiate [Trig]: g'(x) = 0 - 10[-sin(x)]
- Simplify Derivative: g'(x) = 10sin(x)
<u>Step 3: Evaluate</u>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: g'(0) = 10sin(0)
- Evaluate Trig: g'(0) = 10(0)
- Multiply: g'(0) = 0
