21–30. Derivatives
b. Evaluate f'(a) for the given values of a.
f(s) = 4s³+3s; a= -3, -1

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Step 1: Identify the function f(s) = 4s^3 + 3s and the values of a for which we need to evaluate the derivative, which are a = -3 and a = -1.
Step 2: Find the derivative of the function f(s) with respect to s. Use the power rule, which states that the derivative of s^n is n*s^(n-1).
Step 3: Apply the power rule to each term in the function. The derivative of 4s^3 is 12s^2, and the derivative of 3s is 3.
Step 4: Combine the derivatives to get the derivative function f'(s) = 12s^2 + 3.
Step 5: Evaluate the derivative at the given values of a. Substitute s = -3 into f'(s) to find f'(-3), and substitute s = -1 into f'(s) to find f'(-1).

Derivatives

A derivative represents the rate of change of a function with respect to its variable. It is a fundamental concept in calculus that provides information about the slope of the tangent line to the curve of the function at any given point. The derivative can be computed using various rules, such as the power rule, product rule, and quotient rule.

Power Rule

The power rule is a basic differentiation technique used to find the derivative of functions in the form f(s) = s^n, where n is a real number. According to this rule, the derivative f'(s) is calculated as n * s^(n-1). This rule simplifies the process of differentiation for polynomial functions, making it easier to evaluate derivatives at specific points.

Evaluating Derivatives at Specific Points

Evaluating the derivative at specific points involves substituting the given values into the derivative function. This process allows us to determine the instantaneous rate of change of the original function at those points. In the context of the question, we will first find the derivative of f(s) and then substitute a = -3 and a = -1 to find f'(-3) and f'(-1).
