Calculus-Check please?
Fabio stands atop his 16 foot ladder when he realizes that the ladder is slipping down the side of the building. He decides that the base of the ladder is moving away from the bottom of the building at a rate of 2 feet per second when it is 3 feet from the bottom of the buildi...

Oops I meant 4x^3 + x^2 - 12x + 1/ ((x^2+1)^3)

Derivatives
I have gotten so many different responses from mine on this question Can someone PLEASE write out the steps for me for this. Thanks f'(x)= 2x/(x^2+1) Find the second derivative. I get 4x^3 + x^2- 12x + 1

Asympotes, Data?-Bump
Thank you so much! I see what I should have done now. :P

If someone could help me on this, I'd appreciate it. f(x)= 2x/(x^2+1) Vertical: none Horizontal: none Minimum: x=-1 Maximum: x=1 Inflection Points: it seems like there are one or two, but i don't know how to factor f''(x)= 4x^3 + x^2 - 12x + 1 :/

Can someone help me with this? I have already solved it. Thank you.

Calculus-Solved - Incorrect
k(z)= 4z^4 - z(z+10)/((1+z)^2) derivative? 16z^3 + (3z^3 + 26z^2 + 42z + 10)/((1+z)^4) this is wrong though ^

Calculus-Solved - Incorrect
calculate delta y for f(x)= x^(3/2) with x= 4 and delta x= dx=0.1 delta y= f(x+delta x)- f(x) = f(4.1) - f(4) delta y= f(4.1)-8 f(x + delta x)= 8 + 3/2*x^(1/2)*0.1 = 8 + 0.15x^(1/2) = 8 + 0.30 = 8.30 delta y= 8.30 - 8 delta y= 0.30 but this is wrong. why is it wrong?

The Chain Rule- of course! Thank you very much Steve. :-)
