ogunsinamayowa: The situation when you refresh your gmail account every second in anticipation for UI hall approval mail. Viola! New mail popped up! No doubt in your mind; your mind said and confirmed it as the hall approval mail. The anticipation grew intensively and your anxiety became abnormal. You are praying from one small corner of your mind. Firing and swearing the devil of negative mail with blood of Jesus and in veracity of Mountain of fire devil-crushing prayer.
You finally evoked the courage and check the message. but the subject of the message was ' Effective Penis Enlargement Medicine' from Mr Emeka Chukuma. lol |

Actually, I think you guys have been looking at the question from a wrong angle. Something tells me that he meant (1/2)x or x/2 and (1/3)x or x/3 instead of the 1/2x and 1/3x respectively in the question. My thoughts though |

Geofavor: I understand. Hmm.
Let me form a question and solve.
If y = -3xcosx find dy/dx
dy/dx = -3x(-sinx) + -3(cosx)
= 3xsinx - 3cosx
lemme verify. Y = -3xcosx
v = -3x, u = cosx,
-3x(-sinx) + cosx(-3)
= 3xsinx -3cosx
alright.

Another example here; Note that the 1/3 in the first line of solution is the reciprocal of the differentiation of 3x - 5 (which is 3) and the 5 in the denominator is the same as the power got by increasing the initial power(4) by 1 (4 + 1)

It's been long  P(PUQ) = probability of P or Q as requested for in the question P(PnQ) = probability of both P and Q = 1/12 P(P)= probability of P = 3/4 P(Q) = probability of Q = 1/6 And since P and Q are not mutually exclusive, the probability of P or Q, P(PUQ)=P(P)+P(Q)-P(PnQ) The ball is now in your court... |

Another example, Given y = 2tan5x, dy/dx is simply = 2 * 5sec²5x = 10sec²5x.
But if we have something like y = xsinx, this time around, we must use product rule since x is a function of x multiplied by another function of x, sinx. So u = x and v = sin x and so on.... |
Education › Re: Nairaland 2016 Jamb Tutorial Classroon [mathematics Thread] by mathefaro(m): 11:58am On Feb 01, 2016 |
Geofavor: I think you'll use product and chain rule.
Product rule V.du/dx + U.dv/dx
u = 3, v =sin(-4x)
du/dx = 0, dv/dx =? Using chain rule: let a = -4x
:. V = sina
chain rule states, dv/dx = dv/da * da/dx
dv/da = cosa, da/dx = -4
:. dv/dx = cosa * -4 = -4cosa
back to product rule which states:
dy/dx = V.du/dx + U.dv/dx
v = sin(-4x), u =3, du/dx = 0, dv/dx = -4cosa
therefore, dy/dx = sin(-4x) * 0 + 3 * -4cosa
-12cosa. Recall that a = -4x
dy/dx = -12cos(-4x)...
Abeg who knows a quicker method?  The 3 is a constant and not a function of x so you can't represent it with "u" neither should you use product rule. The traditional way of doing this is using the chain rule as shyneptune did. But as jamb candidates theres a shorter alternative. We all know that if y = sinx, dy/dx = cos x If y = tanx, dy/dx = sec²x and If y = cos x, dy/dx = -sinx, Fine, what if we have y = sin(ax), To differentiate y, we differentiate ax (which is a) and multiply it by the differentiation of "sin" function which is "Cos". I.e If y = sin(ax), dy/dx = cos(ax) E.g., if y = Cos(3x² - 2), find dy/dx Firstly, we find the differentiation of 3x² - 2 (which is 6x) and then we multiply it by the derivative of the "cos" function which is "-sin". Therefore, dy/dx = 6x * (-sin)(3x² - 2) = -6xsin(3x² - 2). Then finally, back to the question in quote, If y = b cos(ax), to find y´, we consider the b as just a constant (since we're differentiating with respect to x and b doesn't contain x) that will be multiplied by our answer after solving. I.e., if y = b cos(ax), dy/dx = b * -asin(ax) = -absin(ax) So if y = 3 sin(-4x), First and foremost, remember that 3 is just a constant, and that the differentiation of (-4x) is -4, then following the steps I earlier stated, the differentiation of sin(-4x) = -4cos(-4x) (remember that the differentiation of sinx function is Cosx). Therefore, dy/dx = 3 * (-4cos(-4x)) = -12cos(-4x) |
