Calculating Derivatives and Tangent Lines

The video tutorial explains how to find the derivative of a composite function F(x) = g(x)^3 at x=4. It involves using the chain rule to differentiate, substituting given values, and calculating the slope of the tangent line to find F prime of 4, which is -54.

What is the expression for F(x) given in the problem?

• F(x) = g(x) + 3

• F(x) = g(x)^2
