Easy derivitives question PLEASE HELP NEED TO CHECK MY ANSWER ON #7 https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=sites&srcid=ZGVmYXVsdGRvbWFpbnxtYmFybmVzbWF0aHxneDoxN2Q0MzMwNTMxZjY3MThj

OpenStudy (anonymous):

follow the link I have a question about #7 part A. Would the radius be Radical3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@zepdrix please help im sure it would only take a second and im in dire need. This determines whether i get a C or a D in AP calculus

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

The radius for #7 should be 2*radical 3. Take the derivative of both sides wrt time. Find the rate of change of the area.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did you find that? @iPwnBunnies

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

6pi = 1/2*pi*r^2 6 = 1/2*r^2 12 = r^2 Square root both sides. sqrt(12) = 2*sqrt(3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you dont have to use DA/DT*6pie=.5pier^2Dr/dt

OpenStudy (amistre64):

A = 1/2 pi r^2 A' = 2/2 pi r r' they give you r' and the needed information for r

OpenStudy (anonymous):

got it thanks. Can someone help me with 5 by any chabce part A?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

product rule ... whats the definition?

zepdrix (zepdrix):

haha I like the JYA notation, I've never seen that before.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah but its a division rule within a product rule no?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

figure out the main process first, then fill in the smaller parts

OpenStudy (amistre64):

h = fg what is h' ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you have to find the product rule between f(x) and g(x) and then derivite that once to get h'?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

well, we can define h by 3 products, the quotient rule is over rated ... h = x^(-1) (x^2 + 1) (4x+7)

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Lies :O The quotient rule is so awesome.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

im thinking of a word that starts with an s, and rhyms with ducks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but if you bring it to the top wouldnt you be addint it not multiplying it?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

1/x = x^(-1) nt sure what you mean by adding it

OpenStudy (amistre64):

if we bring it to the top, then its just a product of 3

OpenStudy (amistre64):

h = x^(-1) (x^2 + 1) (4x+7) h' = [x^(-1)]' (x^2 + 1) (4x+7) + x^(-1) [(x^2 + 1)]' (4x+7) + x^(-1) (x^2 + 1) [(4x+7)]'

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ah ok. and just wanna make sure the answer to 7 part a was 2rad3

OpenStudy (amistre64):

2 sqrt3 was the radius value ...

OpenStudy (amistre64):

A' = pi r r'

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks i got .5pierad3

OpenStudy (amistre64):

seems fair 2sqrt3 pi/4 = sqrt3 pi/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks. And im not too sure how you got the x to go on top. Can you explain that a little more?for 5A

OpenStudy (amistre64):

f = (x^2+1)/x but 1/x = x^(-1) = x^(-1) (x^2+1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok. thanks.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do you multiply all of them out?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@amistre64 so is the first term -x^0-1x^-2(4x+7)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

h = x^(-1) (x^2 + 1) (4x+7) h' = [x^(-1)]' (x^2 + 1) (4x+7) + x^(-1) [(x^2 + 1)]' (4x+7) + x^(-1) (x^2 + 1) [(4x+7)]' h' = -x^(-2) (x^2 + 1) (4x+7) + x^(-1) (2x) (4x+7) + x^(-1) (x^2 + 1) (4) simplify to your hearts desire
