I have a table that looks like:
$$\begin{array}{c|c|c|c|c|c} x & -2 & -1 & 0 & 1 & 2\\ \hline f'(x) & 0 & -0.5 & -1 & 0.5 & 1 \end{array}. $$
And three functions to use to calculate the values of their derivatives based on f '(x):
$a(x) = f(-2x)$
$b(x) = f(x+2)$
$c(x) = f(x^2)$
Apparently the answer is to use the Chain Rule but I don't see how I can without the original function for $f(x)$? A nudge or link in the right direction is much appreciated
$y = f(u)\\ y' = f'(u) u'$ This is the chain rule.
$a(x) = f(-2x)\\ a'(x) = f'(-2x)(-2)\\ a'(-1) = f'(2)(-2) = -2$
