[SOLVED] how do you find derivative equations?
I'm not sure if this is the right sub forum.
f(x) = x^3 +6X^2 + 9x + 4
in my book, the first derrivative equation is 3x^2 + 12x + 9
and second equation as 6x + 12
how do you get to these equations?
I know how to calculate the difference... I'm guessing somehow that's how you get it.
I'm not even sure if my question makes sense. I'm working ahead of class, so there's a lot of gaps I need to fill in.
