Calculus I
Fall Semester in Florence

1. Find the derivative of the function.

3
a. f ( x) = e4 x

3
f ' ( x) = e4 x ⋅ 12 x 2
3
f ' ( x) = 12 x 2e4 x

5
b. f ( x) = 4e − 6 x

5
f ' ( x) = 4 ⋅ e−6 x ⋅ −30 x 4
5
f ' ( x) = −120 x 4e−6 x

c. f ( x) = 2 x 7 5e3 x

f ' ( x) = 2 x 7 ⋅ 5 ⋅ e3 x ⋅ 3 + 5e3 x ⋅ 14 x 6

f ' ( x) = 30 x 7e3 x + 70 x 6e3 x

f ' ( x) = 10 x 6e3 x (3 x + 7)

 9 x2
d. f ( x) =
e5 x

f ( x ) = 9 x 2 ⋅ e −5 x

f ' ( x) = 9 x 2 ⋅ e−5 x ⋅ −5 + e−5 x ⋅ 18 x

f ' ( x) = −45 x 2e−5 x + 18 x e−5 x

f ' ( x) = −9 x e−5 x (5 x − 2)
− 9 x (5 x − 2)
f ' ( x) =
e5x

e. f ( x) = (5 x 2 − 3 x) e x

f ' ( x) = (5 x 2 − 3x) ⋅ e x + e x ⋅ (10 x − 3)

f ' ( x) = e x [ (5 x 2 − 3 x) + (10 x − 3) ]

f ' ( x) = e x [ 5 x 2 − 3x + 10 x − 3 ]

f ' ( x) = e x ( 5 x 2 + 7 x − 3 )

 3
f. f ( x) = 38 x −1

3
f ' ( x) = 38 x −1 ln 3 ⋅ 24 x 2
3
f ' ( x) = ln 3 ⋅ 24 x 2 38 x −1

g. f ( x) = 5 sin 2 x

f ' ( x) = 5sin 2 x ln 5 ⋅ cos 2 x ⋅ 2

f ' ( x) = 2 ln 5 ⋅ 5 sin 2 x cos 2 x

h. f ( x) = 2 x5 73 x − 4

f ' ( x) = 2 x5 ⋅ 73 x − 4 ln 7 ⋅ 3 + 73 x − 4 ⋅ 10 x 4

f ' ( x) = ln 7 ⋅ 6 x 5 ⋅ 7 3 x − 4 + 10 x 4 ⋅ 7 3 x − 4

f ' ( x) = 2 x 4 ⋅ 73 x − 4 (ln 7 ⋅ 3 x + 5)
