In Exercises \(75-80\), evaluate the derivative of the function at the indicated point. Use a graphing utility to verify your result. \(\frac{\text { Function }}{y=\sqrt[5]{3 x^{3}+4 x}} \quad \frac{\text { Point }}{(2,2)}\)
If the annual rate of inflation averages \(5 \%\) over the next 10 years, the approximate cost \(C\) of goods or services during any year in that decade is \(C(t)=P(1.05)^{t},\) where \(t\) is the time in years and \(P\) is the present cost. (a) If the price of an oil change for your car is presently \(\$ 24.95,\) estimate the price 10 years from now. (b) Find the rate of change of \(C\) with respect to \(t\) when \(t=1\) and \(t=8\) (c) Verify that the rate of change of \(C\) is proportional to \(C\). What is the constant of proportionality?
Use the position function \(s(t)=-16 t^{2}+v_{0} t+s_{0}\) for free-falling objects. A ball is thrown straight down from the top of a 220 -foot building with an initial velocity of -22 feet per second. What is its velocity after 3 seconds? What is its velocity after falling 108 feet?
The displacement from equilibrium of an object in harmonic motion on the end of a spring is \(y=\frac{1}{3} \cos 12 t-\frac{1}{4} \sin 12 t\) where \(y\) is measured in feet and \(t\) is the time in seconds. Determine the position and velocity of the object when \(t=\pi / 8\).
In Exercises \(115-118,\) evaluate the second derivative of the function at the given point. Use a computer algebra system to verify your result. \(h(x)=\frac{1}{9}(3 x+1)^{3}, \quad\left(1, \frac{64}{9}\right)\)
