Ash's 34th Post

So, goodbye spring break, hello school =/

I'm so confused for some reason so I guess I'll go over some pretty broad topics

First Derivative:
Step One: Just take the derivative using your derivative formulas
Step Two: Simplify!
Example: -3x^2-4
-6x

Second Derivative:
Step One: Take the first derivative
Step Two: Take the derivative again
Step Three: Simplify
Example: -3x^2-4
-6x
-6

Integration:
Step One: Take the opposite of a derivative
Step Two: Simplify!
Example: S(-3x^2-4)
-x^2-4x+C

Definition of a Derivative:
Step One: Remove from the parenthesis the equation to be derived
Step Two: Perform the first derivative test
Step Three: Plug in the number given
Step Four: Simplify!
Example: lim x->O [(3x^2+0)+(3x^2)]\h
(3x^2)
6x
6(0)
0

Blahh...confusion is just too great to ask any questions this time...
BTW: Good luck to everyone on the Practice AP this week!
