IS ANYONE ON HERE??

@johnweldon1993 please helpp

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

So you have a choice here, we can either do the quotient rule...or the product rule...which do you prefer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

product rule

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Alright so since that's the case...we need to write this now as \[\large (1 + sin(x))(1 - cos(x))^{-1}\] now we just use the product rule...that states that \[\large f'g + fg'\] let \(\large (1 + sin(x))\) = f and let \(\large (1 - cos(x))\) = g

OpenStudy (freckles):

g=(1-cos(x))^(-1)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i was right(:

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

^thank you for catching that mistake @freckles :)

OpenStudy (freckles):

I'm not sure about the answer 2csc(x)sec(x) did you apply the product rule to the rewrite of the problem that @johnweldon1993 has provided

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh wait one sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would it be 1?

OpenStudy (freckles):

\[\frac{d}{dx}(1+\sin(x))=?\]

OpenStudy (freckles):

\[\frac{d}{dx}(1-\cos(x))^{-1}=?\]

OpenStudy (freckles):

\[[(1+\sin(x))(1-\cos(x))^{-1}]' \\ =[1+\sin(x)]'(1-\cos(x))^{-1}+[(1-\cos(x))^{-1}]'(1+\sin(x))\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i keep getting the same answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2csc(x)sec(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Loser66 am i right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its been 35 minutes lol..

@satellite73 HELPPPPP
