Question : Hi, everyone. I need to find the derivative of the following problem using the chain rule: [1 + sin^3(x^5)]^12 Thank you so much!

Answer : Apply the chain rule four times: d/dx[1 + sin^3(x^5)]^12 = 12*[1 + sin^3(x^5)]^11 * d/dx[1 + sin^3(x^5)] = 12*[1 + sin^3(x^5)]^11 * 3sin^2(x^5) * d/dx[sin(x^5)] = 12*[1 + sin^3(x^5)]^11 * 3sin^2(x^5) * cos(x^5) * d/dx[x^5] = 12*[1 + sin^3(x^5)]^11 * 3sin^2(x^5) * cos(x^5) * 5x^4..   More from Yahoo Answers

Question : I need to use the derivative to find a different answer but I cant figure out the derivative. What is the derivative of x/(sqrt(2x-1)) I am pretty sure we are supposed to use the chain rule.

Answer : x/ (2x-1) we are going to use this formula u/v = (v d/dx u - u d/dx v ) / v or the same as ( g f ' - f g' ) g u = x v = (2x-1) [ (2x-1) d/dx x - x d/dx (2x-1) ] / (2x-1) [ (2x-1)^1/2 (1) - (x) (1/2 (2x-1)^-1/2 (2)) ] / 2x-1 (2x-1) - x(2x-1)^-1/2 / 2x-1..   More from Yahoo Answers
