Practice Derivatives Quiz Review - Chapter's 2 & 3

Find the second derivative of
f(x) = x² + e^x  - cosx

• f"(x) = 2 + e^x + cosx
• f"(x) = 2x + e^x + cosx
• f"(x) = 2x + xe^x - cosx
• f"(x) = 2x + e^x + sinx

Find the derivative
f(t) = (t² + 2t)⁵

• f'(t) = 5(2t+2)⁴
• f'(t) = 5(t² + 2t)⁴
•  f'(t) = 5(t² + 2t)⁴(2t)
• f'(t) = 5(t² + 2t)⁴(2t + 2)

Find the derivative.
 f(z) = 1/(3z²) + 4z³

• f'(z) = 6z³ + 12z²
• f'(z) = 6z + 12x²
• f'(z) =  -2/(3z³) + 12z²
• f'(z) = -6/z² + 12z²

If the position of a particle is represented by x(t) = -t² + 1, what is its instantaneous velocity at t = 1?  

• v = 0
• v = 1
• v = -1

Set up the derivative of y=(3x⁴ - 7)*(5x² + 1)

• (12x³)*(10x)
• (3x⁴ - 7)*(10x) + (12x³)*(5x² + 1)
• (3x⁴ - 7)*(10x) - (12x³)*(5x² + 1)
• (3x⁴ - 7)/(10x) + (12x³)/(5x² + 1)
