Question

One hour after x milligrams of a drug are given to a person, the change in body temperature T(x) (in degrees fahrenheit) is given by the function T(x) = x^2(1 - x/10). Further, the rate T'(x) at which T changes with respect to the size of the dosage, x, is called the sensitivity of the body to the dosage. Find: (A) T'(1) = (B) T'(3) = (C) T'(6) =

Step 1

The derivative of a function is found by applying the power rule, which states that the derivative of x^n is n*x^(n-1). So, the derivative of x^2 is 2x. Show more…
