Find dy/dx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[y = ax + cx^5\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u know dy/dx is differentiation of y with respect to x so we have \[\frac{ d }{ dx } (x^n) = n*x^{n-1}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so in your equation you have x with powers 1 and 5 and also i forgot to tell you\[\frac{ d }{ dx }(cx) =c \frac{ d }{ dx }(x)\ \ \ where\ c \ is \ constant\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this differentiation is hard

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

they're the lecture videos for first level calculus course at MIT go thru them if possble

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you explain these 3 more questions than i have 3 questions related to integrals too

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

what is this all about ? its not good for ur stomach to eat both differentiation and integration in a single meal lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have to practice these questions than i have to complete report writing

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Okay memorize below rules for differentiation : Rule 1 : \(\large \dfrac{d}{dx}\left(c\right) = 0\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large c\) is constant, like 1, 2, 3 etc.. the derivative of a constant is \(0\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you explain the them and their implementation and when to use

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Look at ur first problem now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=b

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large y = 100 + b\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

differentiate both sides : \(\large \dfrac{d}{dx}\left(y\right) = \dfrac{d}{dx} \left(100 + b\right)\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

since \(100\) is a constant, its derivative is \(0\) since \(b\) is also a constant, its derivative is also \(0\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large \dfrac{d}{dx}\left(y\right) = \dfrac{d}{dx} \left(100 + b\right)\) \(\large ~~~~~~~~~~= 0 + 0\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

the answer is simply \(\large 0\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

keep in mind - Only \(x\) and \(y\) are the variables in the given problems. All others are just constants.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

are u ready for rule 2 ? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

before moving to second rule, you need to knw below basic stuff : \(\large \dfrac{d}{dx} \left(f(x) \color{red}{+} g(x)\right) = \dfrac{d}{dx} \left(f(x)\right) \color{red}{+} \dfrac{d}{dx} \left(g(x)\right) \) \(\large \dfrac{d}{dx} \left(f(x) \color{red}{-} g(x)\right) = \dfrac{d}{dx} \left(f(x)\right) \color{red}{-} \dfrac{d}{dx} \left(g(x)\right) \)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

In words : differentiating `sum of two functions` is same as differentiating `each function separately` and adding them.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

similarly, differentiating `difference of two functions` is same as differentiating `each function separately` and subtracting them.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

let me knw once u digest them ^

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

do u have juice machine in ur home ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

differentiating each function separately. can you explain this statement

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ofcourse
