Math 125: Basic Calculus Name _________________________

Most Efficient Method Section:__________


Instructions:
Consider each function below and circle the corresponding letter(s) based on using Whatthe

method. without
(1 point each)rewriting the function at all
To the right of each function Circle the letter S if the problem can be differentiated using the Simple Power Rule
(sum/diff, constant multiple, and constant rules can be assumed), P if the problem would require the use of the product rule
for differentiation, a Q if the problem would require the quotient rule for differentiation, and/or a C if the problem
would require the chain rule for differentiation. Some functions may be combos of PC or QC, so you may circle
more than one letter (S is assumed in all product, quotient or chain problem, so it will not be part of any combos.)
