Unfortunately, I'm completely lost with this question:
1. A particle is moving along the x-axis. Its position as a function of time is given as
x=bt-ct^2
Derive an expression for the x- component of velocity.
and
Derive an expression for the x-component of the particle’s acceleration, ax.
The equation that I have to begin with (I have to start with it and then change it into the answer) MUST be on this sheet:

Unfortunately, I have no idea which one to use. Can somebody point me in the right direction?
