It is important to know rates of change in many fields. Derivatives appear often in physics and engineering. Accurate predictions are made using equations that employ derivatives. They are called differential equations.

Because that is the rule for polynomial derivatives. Add up the derivatives of each term. The derivative of a constant term (like -20 in your case) is zero. The derivative of a*x^n is n*a*x^(n-1)
