Differentiate y = x^3 + 2x^2 + 4x + 7

To differentiate you bring the power down and multiply it by any coefficients (numbers in front of the xs) then subtract one from the power 

So x3 becomes 3x2 

2x2...

What is the indefinite integral of (x^4)*(-sin(x)) dx

Use integration by parts. Let u = x^4 and let dv/dx = -sin(x). Find du/dx = 4x^3 and fin v = cos(x). Use the equation uv - int (v du/dx) = x^4 cos(x) - 4((x^4/4)*(sin(x)) = x^4 cos(x) - x^4 sin(x) = x^4 (...

Derive 2*x^(3/2)+x+4

Will differentiate to 3*x^(1/2)+1. As you bring down the power and mulitply it my the coefficients, and take one off of the power for terms with x. And any constant differentiates to 0.
