Consider the function c(q)=20q+5q+100. Determine the derivative in q=4.
c(q)=10q+5.
This exercise cannot be solved, because the derivative of q cannot be determined.
This exercise cannot be solved, because c(q) is the sum of three functions.
c(4)=10.

Correct: Write c(q)=u(q)+v(q) with u(q)=20q=20q12 and v(q)=5q+100. Then v(q) is again the sum of two functions: v(q)=w(q)+y(q), with w(q)=5q and y(q)=100. By the use of the Derivatives of elementary functions and the Scalar product rule we then find c(q):
u(q)=2012q121=10q12=10qw(q)=5y(q)=0v(q)=w(q)+y(q)=5c(q)=u(q)+v(q)=10q+5.
Finally, we plug in q=4:
c(4)=104+5=102+5=5+5=10.

Go on.

Wrong: You have to calculate the derivative in the point q=4, not the derivative function c(q).

Try again.

Wrong: The derivative of q can be determined.

See Properties power functions or Derivatives of elementary functions: Example 2.

Wrong: Write c(q)=u(q)+v(q), with u(q)=20q. Then write v(q)=w(q)+y(q) and apply the sum rule twice (once to determine v(q) and once to determine c(q)).

Try again.
