Derivatives

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ x ^{3} }{ 9 } (3lnx-1)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did product rule, \[\frac{ x ^{3} }{9}( \frac{ 3 }{ x }) + 3lnx-1 (\frac{ 3x ^{2} }{ 9 }\]

why dont you split up it first... and u do the first part with product rule and the another one u just differentiate it...

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Hmmm yah that looks correct swin :o does the book say no good? Or you just checking your work?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well my teacher got 3lnx or something like that hahaha. i had a denominator...

|dw:1352252310537:dw| Hmmm I think this is what you'll end up with if I did that correctly. Your first step, taking the derivative looks good, it just can be simplified a bit, since you have some powers of x, and x's in the denominator :O
