well, the week before the holidays, we didn't learn anything new. that week, we actually did study guides. the study guides helped a lot with studying for the exam.
So, i'm going to talk about something EVERYONE in calculus should know how to do....
derivatives.
When taking a derivative, you are given a primary function referred to as f. The derivative, or F', is basically taking the exponent of each term, moving it to the front of each term, multiplying the coefficient of each term by that exponent, and reducing the exponent by 1.
Ex: 4x^2
F'=(2)(4)x^(2-1)
F'=8x
Remember, the derivative of a constant, some number, is 0.
