Answer

In both cases (a. and b.): $h^{\prime}(x)=1+4x$

Work Step by Step

a. Since $ x\cdot(1+2x)=x+ 2x^{2}$, Using the Power, Constant Multiple, and Sum rules, $h(x)= x+2x^{2}$, $h^{\prime}(x)=1+2(2x)=1+4x$ b. $u(x)=x ,\ \ \ v(x)=1+2x$ $h(x)=u(x)v(x)$ $u^{\prime}(x)=1,\ \ \ v^{\prime}(x)=2$ Product Rule: $h^{\prime}(x)=u^{\prime}(x)v(x)+u(x)v^{\prime}(x)$ $= 1(1+2x)+2(x)=1+2x+2x=1+4x$
