You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1. False. This is NEVER true and it is a misconception to many incoming calc students. Why? Well you first learn that if F(x)=f(x)+g(x), then F'(x)=f'(x)+g'(x). So many people wonder: \"why not apply it to f(x)*g(x)?\"\r

\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2. True. The derivative is a linear operator. In other words, where \"m\" and \"n\" are constants.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3. True. Recall that a constant function graphs a horizontal line. Also, the slope of ANY horizontal line is zero.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4. I'm assuming you meant to write F(x)=f(x)+g(x). If so, then this is true. Once again, the derivative is a linear operator.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "5. This is true (as this is the definition of the product rule).\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "6. False (since at least one is true, this is automatically false)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "7. True. \"d%28x%5Ek%29%2F%28dx%29=k%2Ax%5E%28k-1%29\". Example: \"d%28x%5E3%29%2F%28dx%29=3x%5E%283-1%29=3x%5E2\"
