Find the second derivative. -y = 7x² + 8x - 8 A) 14 B) 0 C) 7 D) 14x + 8

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The second derivative of $y = 7x^{12} + 8x - 8$ is $y'' = 14x^{10}$. When evaluating at any x, the term $14x^{10}$ does not become a constant, but since the question does not specify a value of x to evaluate at, the closest answer reflecting the presence of a constant term in the second derivative is 14, acknowledging a misunderstanding in the interpretation of the derivative's outcome.
