Question

derivative of xsqrt(2x-3). the answer is 3x-3/(sqrt(2x-3)) i just need to see steps of how to get there

Answer 1

Use the product rule and the chain rule. If it's easier, you can rewrite \(\sqrt{2x-3}\) as \((2x-3)^\frac{1}{2}\).

Answer 2

i did

Answer 3

What result are you getting?

Answer 4

i got to 9(2x-3)^.5+.5x(2x-3)^-.5(2)

Answer 5

Can you show steps of how you got that result??

Answer 6

no 9 in front of that..

Answer 7

Oh, okay, I see.

Answer 8

So you have \(\sqrt{2x-3}+\dfrac{x}{\sqrt{2x-3}}\), right?

Answer 9

yeah

Answer 10

We can rewrite \(\sqrt{2x-3}\) as \(\dfrac{2x-3}{\sqrt{2x-3}}\).

Answer 11

ohhh
