Find dy/dx when y=(3x-1)^10

We have to use the chain rule in this instance to find the differentiated value y=(3x-1)^10 suppose y=u^10 thus, dy/du = 10u^9 secondly: u=3x-1 du/dx=3 the chain rule suggests that dy/dx = du/dx *dy/du so that du cancels out Therefore, dy/dx = 10(3x-1)^9 * (3)Simplified, dy/dx = 30(3x-1)^9

A curve has equation y = f(x) and passes through the point (4,22). Given that f'(x) = 3x^2 - 3x^(1/2) - 7 use intergration to find f(x).


5Sin[x]-4=2Cos[2x]


Solve the following definite integral: f(x)=3e^(2x+1) for the limits a=0 and b=1, leaving your answer in exact form.


f(x) = (sin(x))^3. What is f'(x)
