A function pp has a Taylor polynomial centered at x=2x=2 given by P(x)=1+4(x−2)+32(x−2)2+16(x−2)3.P(x)=1+4(x-2)+\frac{3}{2}(x-2)^2+\frac{1}{6}(x-2)^3. What are p′(2)p'(2) and p′′(2)p''(2)? a) p′(2)=2 and p′′(2)=3p'(2)=2\text{ and }p''(2)=3 b) p′(2)=4 and p′′(2)=32p'(2)=4\text{ and }p''(2)=\dfrac{3}{2} c) p′(2)=4 and p′′(2)=3p'(2)=4\text{ and }p''(2)=3 d) p′(2)=3 and p′′(2)=4p'(2)=3\text{ and }p''(2)=4
