Question

find derivative of y = (3x - 5)(sqrt(6x + 1))

Answer 1

Also chain rule. Write the square root as (6x+1)^(1/2) and it makes more sense.

Answer 2

can you be more elaborate

Answer 3

Okay, so you look at it in terms of factors and apply the product rule, so you take the derivative of (3x-5) and multiply by sqrt(6x+1)

Then you add that to the product of (3x-5) and the derivative of sqrt(6x+1)

also known as first d last plus last d first

Answer 4

to find the derivative of sqrt(6x+1), rewrite it in the sensible form

(6x+1)^(1/2)

Bring the exponent down in front, reduce the power by one, then multiply by the derivative of the argument

Answer 5

so we get (1/2)(6x+1)^(-1/2)(6)

Answer 6

total is (3x-5)(1/2)(6)(6x+1)^(-1/2)+(3)(6x+1)^(1/2)

Answer 7

WHATS YOUR ANSWER

Answer 8

remember ^(-1/2) gives one over the square root of...
