Question

differentiate the following: y=w^3/2(w+5we^w)

Answer 1

use quotient rule

Answer 2

Yeah I know its just that I keep getting stuck

Answer 3

it should be like
\[\Large y'=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{\frac{d}{dw}(w^3)(w+5we^w)-\frac{d}{dw}(w+5we^w)*w^3}{(w+5we^w)^2})\]

Answer 4

can you do this now ?

Answer 5

Yeah I think the 5we^w was what was confusing me.Thanks a bunch :)

Answer 6

where
\[\Large \frac{d}{dw}(w^3)=3w^2\]
and
\[\Large \frac{d}{dw}(w+we^w)=(1+e^w+we^w)\]

Answer 7

you are welcome :)
and there is 5 i missed at the end !

Answer 8

oh ok :)
