Answer:

-
√(5)/8

Explanation:

so you are looking to find the second derivative of this function, given the derivative. that means that all you have to do is take the derivative of that function and then plug in 16 for h.

rewrite the function to be -(5h)^1/2

then take its derivative using power rule and chain rule

-(1/2)*(5)*(5h)^(-1/2) **the five comes from the chain rule and taking the derivative of the 5h

then plug in 16 for h to find -
√(5)/8 or about -0.2795
