3.7, #6, Given Problem.
|
Differentiate:
|
Given problem: number 6, Lesson 3.7. |
|
|
Here we first use a property of logarithms to rewrite the function. |
|
|
Now we take the derivatives using our new derivative. |
|
|
We convert both fractions so that they have a common denominator. |
|
|
Another form of the answer. |
3.7, #14, Given Problem.
| Differentiate: |
Given problem: number 14, Lesson 3.7 |
|
|
We simplify the logarithmic statement using log laws. |
|
|
We again simplify the logarithmic statement using log laws. |
|
|
Now we differentiate, using the chain rule in the second term. |
|
|
We simplify the result. |
3.7, #34, Given Problem.
|
Use logarithmic differentiation:
|
Given problem: Number 34, Lesson 3.7. |
|
|
In logarithmic differentiation, we first take the logarithm of both sides. |
|
|
Now we differentiate implicitly with respect to x. The chain rule is needed on the left side. On the right side we use the product rule. |
|
|
We solve for y' by multiplying both sides by y. |
|
|
We substitute for y based on the original problem. |
