To determine g′(0) , we start by applying the chain rule and product rule to find the derivative of the given function g(x)=h(ex)eh(x) .
The product rule states that if we have two functions u(x) and v(x) , then the derivative of their product is given by:
(u(x)v(x))′=u′(x)v(x)+u(x)v′(x)
Let's denote u(x)=h(ex) and v(x)=eh(x) .
First, we need to find u′(x) and v′(x) . Using the chain rule, we find:
u′(x)=dxdh(ex)=h′(ex)⋅dxd(ex)=h′(ex)⋅ex
Now, the derivative of v(x) is:
v′(x)=dxd(eh(x))=eh(x)⋅h′(x)
Using the product rule, we get the derivative of g(x) :
g′(x)=u′(x)v(x)+u(x)v′(x)
Substituting u(x) , v(x) , u′(x) , and v′(x) into the above expression, we get:
g′(x)=(h′(ex)ex)eh(x)+(h(ex))(eh(x)h′(x))
Next, we need to evaluate this at x=0 :
First, we know that:
h(0)=0
h(1)=1
h′(0)=2
h′(1)=2
Substituting x=0 into the expressions, we get:
u(0)=h(e0)=h(1)=1
v(0)=eh(0)=e0=1
u′(0)=h′(e0)e0=h′(1)⋅1=2
v′(0)=eh(0)h′(0)=e0⋅2=2
Therefore, evaluating g′(0) :
g′(0)=(u′(0)v(0))+(u(0)v′(0))
g′(0)=(2⋅1)+(1⋅2)
g′(0)=2+2=4
Thus, the value of g′(0) is 4, which corresponds to Option A.
The correct answer is Option A: 4.
