Differentiate the following with respect to x:

Given,


f(x) =


f(x) =


f(x) = 2x2 + 10x – 1 – 5x – 1


we need to find f’(x), so differentiating both sides with respect to x –



Using algebra of derivatives –


f’(x) =


Use the formula:


f’(x) = 2(2x2 – 1) + 10(1) – ( – 1)(0)– 5( – 1)x – 1 – 1


f’(x) = 4x + 10 + 0 + 5x – 2


f’(x) = 4x + 10 + 5x – 2
