Review the Fundamental Theorem by moving between accumulation functions, antiderivatives and definite-integral evaluations.
The continuous function f is defined on the closed interval −6≤x≤12. The graph of f,
consisting of two semicircles and one line segment, is shown in the figure.

Let g be the function defined by g(x)=∫6xf(t)dt.
Find g′(8). Give a reason for your answer.
| A | Find g′(8). Give a reason for your answer. | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| g′(x)=f(x) | Considers g′(x)=f(x) | Point 1 (P1) | |
| g′(8)=f(8)=1 | Answer | Point 2 (P2) | |
| Scoring Notes for Part A | |||
| - A response that does not earn P1 can earn P2 with an implied application of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (e.g., g′(8)=1 or f(8)=1 ). | |||
