The dose-response for a specific drug is
f ( x ) = 100 x 2 x 2 + 0.14 \displaystyle {f{{\left({x}\right)}}}=\frac{{{100}{x}^{{2}}}}{{{x}^{{2}}+{0.14}}} f ( x ) = x 2 + 0.14 100 x 2 , where
f ( x ) \displaystyle {f{{\left({x}\right)}}} f ( x ) is the percent of relief obtained from a dose of
x \displaystyle {x} x grams of a drug, where
0 ≤ x ≤ 1.5 \displaystyle {0}\le{x}\le{1.5} 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.5 .
For doses of 0.1 grams and 0.9 grams, calculate
f ( x ) \displaystyle {f{{\left({x}\right)}}} f ( x ) and
f ′ ( x ) \displaystyle {f}'{\left({x}\right)} f ′ ( x )
f ( 0.1 ) \displaystyle {f{{\left({0.1}\right)}}} f ( 0.1 ) =
