lets see... (another fund. trm of calc Q.)

myininaya (myininaya):

the final answer is right i just don't like the work before it

myininaya (myininaya):

\[\text{ i would rewrite what you said like this } \\ (\tan(x))'f(\tan(x))= \sqrt{...} \cdot \frac{d}{dx}\tan(x)\] I didn't feel like writing all that stuff in the square root :p

myininaya (myininaya):

not a big deal

myininaya (myininaya):

it was just not exactly equal :p

OpenStudy (idku):

wait, so you are saying the same thing, aren't you? except that you are saying (tan x)' * F'(tan x) and I wrote the whole f(tan x) out and multiplied times the derivative of tan(x)

OpenStudy (idku):

substituted tan(x) instead of "t", (removing the integral as given by fund. trm, which makes sense) and used a chain rule , i.e. times (tan x)'

myininaya (myininaya):

I know everything you did is right I just don't like that equality because they weren't exactly equal f(x)=sqrt(x+sqrt(x)) f(tan(x)=sqrt(tan(x)+sqrt(tan(x))

OpenStudy (idku):

oh, I thought you are saying i was wrong.

OpenStudy (idku):

I see...

myininaya (myininaya):

i didn't say you were wrong i just said i didn't like the work above

myininaya (myininaya):

only because the equality wasn't exactly true

myininaya (myininaya):

the only reason i said something about it is because a teacher would too

myininaya (myininaya):

or some teachers would

OpenStudy (idku):

well, it is normal to understand "didn't like" this way, also i think I didn't leave out the chain rule for the deriv. of tan x

myininaya (myininaya):

ok well i don't care if you don't care

OpenStudy (idku):

So, as far as the work goes, I don't see any errors. I said, f(tan x) = ....

OpenStudy (idku):

i am thinking that I got the idea here... still don't see any even smallest errors in what I wrote, but I will go over when I have time. (I am really busy doing h/w sorry)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[y=\int\limits^{\tan x}_{0} \sqrt{t+ \sqrt{t}}~~dt\] are you defining \(f(t) = \sqrt{t+\sqrt{t}}\) ?

OpenStudy (idku):

yes, if my head isn't broken.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

then isn't \(f(\tan x) = \sqrt{\tan x + \sqrt{\tan x}}\) ?

OpenStudy (idku):

the chain rule for the tanx ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

why do you need chain rule, you aren't differentiating anything yet you have just definited a function and taking composition with another function \(g(x) = \tan x\) right ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

suppose you're in algebra2, how would you answer to below question ? \[f(t) = \sqrt{t+\sqrt{t}}\] \[f(\tan x) = ?~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\]

OpenStudy (idku):

I am not sure about the definition, I tricked myself and ya'll I guess. What I was saying that (with any C) |dw:1421284435319:dw|
