Please help me differentiate this function or find the compsed functions!!

OpenStudy (perl):

y = sqrt( x + sqrt( x + sqrt(x) ) )

OpenStudy (perl):

first thing you can do is square both sides , before taking derivative

OpenStudy (perl):

y^2 = x + sqrt(x + sqrt(x) )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhhh

OpenStudy (perl):

but actually it may not help

OpenStudy (perl):

y = ( x + ( x + (x^.5 ) ^.5 ) ^.5
