Really need help on this fundamental theorem of calculus problem. @Calculus1

I thought the answer was sin(5)/5-sin(x^6)/x^6, but that's wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

derivative of the integral is the "integrand"

hero (hero):

\[\frac{-6\sin(x^6)}{x}\]

hero (hero):

Try that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first rewrite this as \[F(x)=-\int_5^{x^6}\frac{\sin(t)}{t}dt\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then use the chain rule to find the derivative. replace each t by x^6, and then multiply the result by the derivative of x^6 namely 6x^5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hero you are a lifesaver, thank you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you get \[\frac{d}{dx}-\int_5^{x^6}\frac{\sin(t)}{t}dt=-\frac{6x^5\sin(x^6)}{x^6}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which simplifies to what hero wrote!

satellite73 thanks for the explanation, extremely helpful.
