so here is the derivative step by step but you have to apply product rule and chain rule here: f'=3(x^1/2)*(-sin(x^1/2))(1/(2*x^1/2))+cos(x^1/2)(3/(2*x^1/2))-(1/((2*x^1/2)cos(x^1/2) f'=(-3(x^1/2)/(2*x^1/2))sin(x^1/2)+(3/(2*x^1/2))cos(x^1/2)-(1/(2*x^1/2))cos(x^1/2) f'=(1/x^1/2)cos(x^1/2)-(3/2)sin(x^1/2) so the answer is number 2 on your list in word attachment let me know if you need any understanding...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is there anyway you could draw on the step out or do something else?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oops! meant draw all the steps out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is no way to draw this it uses the following rules uv=uv'+vu' where the v' and u' use chain rule here because the (X^1/2) term in those sines and cosines becomes 1/2*(x^-1/2) which is 1/(2*x^(1/2)) it just a matter of keep track of things not very hard if you look through what i wrote you should be able to pick up really fast

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is number 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[3x^{1/2}(-\sin(x^{1/2})(\frac{1}{2x^{1/2}})+\cos(x^{1/2})(\frac{3}{2x^{1/2}})\] this is for your product rule before the minus sign

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what is your f and g in this problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cleaning it up by multiplying stuff out you'll get \[\frac{3x^{1/2}}{2x^{1/2}}(-\sin(x^{1/2})+\frac{3}{2x^{1/2}}(\cos(x^{1/2}))\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh I see f=3x^(1/2) and g=cos^(1/2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oops g=cos(x)^(1/2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then doing the last part of the derivative which would be \[\frac{d}{dx}[\sin(x^{1/2})=\cos(x^{1/2})(\frac{1}{2x^{1/2}})=\frac{1}{2x^{1/2}}(\cos(x^{1/2}))\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so when you put it together you get \[\frac{-3\sqrt{x}}{2\sqrt{x}}(\sin(\sqrt{x})+\frac{3}{2\sqrt{x}}(\cos(\sqrt{x}))-\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}(\cos(\sqrt{x}))\] the square roots in the sin part will cancel and when you can minus the cos due to same denominators and youll get 2 on the top which will reduce to 1

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

LOL, my tutor would be evil next year when i learn that xD Gawd , I hate my tutor he gives me extremely HARD h.w

OpenStudy (anonymous):

soo your anwer after doing all in the above paragraph will be \[\frac{-3}{2}\sin \sqrt{x}+\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}\cos \sqrt{x}=\frac{1}{2{\sqrt{x}}}\cos \sqrt{x}-\frac{-3}{2}\sin \sqrt{x}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which is answer 2!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where -3/2 sin(X)^(1/2) at the end of the function come from

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, my bad its equal sign between the two equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how come when you reduce the cosine function because they had common base when you did 3-1 and got 2 shouldn't that cancel out the 2 on the bottom leaving 1/x^(1/2)
