The temperature TT in degrees Celsius at a point on a metal rod depends on the distance xx in centimeters from one end according to T=5x2+20T=5x^{2}+20. If xx is itself a differentiable function of time tt (measured in seconds), which of the following expressions correctly represents dTdt\dfrac{dT}{dt} in terms of xx and dxdt\dfrac{dx}{dt}? a) 5x dxdt5x\,\dfrac{dx}{dt} b) 10x dxdt10x\,\dfrac{dx}{dt} c) 10x10x d) 10 dxdt10\,\dfrac{dx}{dt}
