_______ (2 + 3*x)*\/ x - 1
(2 + 3*x)*sqrt(x - 1)
Apply the product rule:
; to find :
Differentiate term by term:
The derivative of the constant is zero.
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Apply the power rule: goes to
So, the result is:
The result is:
; to find :
Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Differentiate term by term:
Apply the power rule: goes to
The derivative of the constant is zero.
The result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
The result is:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
_______ 2 + 3*x 3*\/ x - 1 + ----------- _______ 2*\/ x - 1
2 + 3*x 3 - ---------- 4*(-1 + x) -------------- ________ \/ -1 + x
