DERIVATIVE QUESTION: how to find the derivative of this: http://i.imgur.com/jh8EW.png

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\ln(y)=x^2\ln(7^2)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[y=e^{(x^2\ln(49)}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats not the right answer :S

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes \[dy/dx=2x \ln(49)e^{x^2\ln49}\]

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

@Jonask I believe your first step is wrong. It should be:\[\ln(y)=2^{x^2}\ln(7)\]

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

You can then use implicit differentiation, but you would need to first make another substitution along the way to work out the derivative of \(2^{x^2}\).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh i was getting worried about that can we use mod thing here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

got it, the answer is 2^(x^2+1)*7^(2^(x^2))*x*ln(2)*ln(7)

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

that is the correct answer.
