Questions and Answers

What is the derivative of $f(x) = 3x^4 - 8x^2 + 5$?

  • $f'(x) = 12x^3 - 8x$
  • $f'(x) = 12x^3 - 16$
  • $f'(x) = 12x^3 - 16x$ (correct)
  • $f'(x) = 12x^3 - 8$
  • What is the derivative of $h(x) = e^{2x} + rac{1}{x^2}$?

  • $h'(x) = 2e^{2x} + rac{2}{x^3}$
  • $h'(x) = 2e^{2x} - rac{2}{x^3}$
  • $h'(x) = 2e^{2x} + rac{-2}{x^3}$ (correct)
  • $h'(x) = 2e^{2x} - rac{-2}{x^3}$

    Study Notes

    Derivatives

    • The derivative of $f(x) = 3x^4 - 8x^2 + 5$ can be found using the power rule and sum rule of differentiation.
    • The derivative of $h(x) = e^{2x} + \frac{1}{x^2}$ involves using the chain rule for the exponential function and the power rule for the rational function.
    • The derivative of $g(x) = \frac{2}{x} + 4x^2$ requires applying the power rule for differentiation to the polynomial term and the reciprocal rule to the rational term.

    Inverse and Logarithmic Functions

    • The inverse function of $y = \log_a(x)$ is $x = a^y$.
    • The value of $\log_2(8)$ is 3, since $2^3 = 8$.
    • The domain of the function $f(x) = \log_3(x)$ is $(0, \infty)$, since logarithmic functions are only defined for positive real numbers.
