question 27

Essay

Find all of the higher-order derivatives of x(t)=
- 3
- x.Use your graphing calculator to graph x(t)and x'(t)on the same axes.Verify that when x(t)is decreasing (sloping downward),the value of x'(t)is negative.Repeat this for x'(t)and x''(t),for x''(t)and x'''(t),and for x'''(t)and
(t).
