a) (1.25 points) Let $f$ and $g$ be two differentiable functions for which the following data are known:
$$f ( 1 ) = 1 ; f ^ { \prime } ( 1 ) = 2 ; g ( 1 ) = 3 ; g ^ { \prime } ( 1 ) = 4 :$$
Given $h ( x ) = f \left( ( x + 1 ) ^ { 2 } \right)$, use the chain rule to calculate $h ^ { \prime } ( 0 )$. Given $k ( x ) = \frac { f ( x ) } { g ( x ) }$, calculate $k ^ { \prime } ( 1 )$.
b) (1.25 points) Calculate the integral $\int ( \operatorname { sen } x ) ^ { 4 } ( \cos x ) ^ { 3 } d x$. (You can use the change of variables $t = \operatorname { sen } x$.)

A function f is defined on the set of real numbers as
$$f ( x ) = x ^ { 2 } + x - 4$$
A function g defined and continuous on the set of real numbers has a derivative $g ^ { \prime }$ such that $g ^ { \prime } ( x ) = 0$ only for $x = 2$. Accordingly, the product of the x values satisfying
$$( g \circ f ) ^ { \prime } ( x ) = 0$$

A) 0
B) 1
C) 3
D) 4
E) 6
