If $q(x) = \frac{x^2}{e^x}$ , which of the following is equal to $q'(x)$ ?

Hint: If $g(x) = e^x$ , then $g'(x) = e^x.$

\frac{e^x(2x) - e^x(x^2)}{e^{2x}}

\frac{e^x(2x) + e^x(x^2)}{e^{2x}}

\frac{2x}{e^x}

If $h(x) = \color{#3D99F6}{(x^3 + x^2)}\color{#D61F06}{(5x + 1)}$ , which of the following is equal to $h'(x)$ ?

$A. h'(x) = \color{#3D99F6}{(3x^2 + 2x)}\cdot \color{#D61F06}{(5)}.$

$B. h'(x) = \color{#3D99F6}{(x^3 + x^2)}\cdot \color{#D61F06}{(5x + 1)} + \color{#3D99F6}{(3x^2+2x)}\cdot \color{#D61F06}{(5)}.$

$C. h'(x) = \color{#3D99F6}{(3x^2 + 2x)}\cdot \color{#D61F06}{(5x + 1)} + \color{#3D99F6}{(x^3+x^2)}\cdot \color{#D61F06}{(5)}.$
