Can someone help me with this?

Question in attachment

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hard to read answers but the derivative of the integral is the integrand. now use chain rule. first suppose you had \[\frac{d}{dx}\int_x^a t^{\frac{1}{2}}dt\] then this is the same as \[\frac{d}{dx}-\int_a^x t{^\frac{1}{2}}dt\] and that is just \[-x^{\frac{1}{2}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that will be one term of your derivative. then we compute the next one \[\frac{d}{dx}\int_a^{x^2} t^{\frac{1}{2}}dt\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry should be x^4 up top. now it is a chain rule problem. the derivative of the integral is the integrand, but now you have to replace t by x^4 and also multiply by the derivative of x^4 via the chain rule. you get \[(x^4)^{\frac{1}{2}}\times 4x^3\] or \[x^2\times 4x^3=4x^5\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for a "final answer" of \[4x^5-x^{\frac{1}{2}}\] or \[4x^5-\sqrt{x}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why -x^0.5 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why -x^0.5 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the very first one computed. i can write it again \[\frac{d}{dx}\int_a^x \sqrt{t}dt=\sqrt{x}\] since the derivative of the integral is the integrand yes?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so \[\frac{d}{dx}\int_x^a \sqrt{t}dt = -\sqrt{x}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I still dont get it.How do u get the x^-0.5?
