Apply the product rule:
; to find :
Apply the power rule: goes to
; to find :
Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
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:
The result of the chain rule is:
The result is:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
________ 2 / 2 x \/ 4 - x - ----------- ________ / 2 \/ 4 - x
/ 2 \ | x | x*|-3 + -------| | 2| \ -4 + x / ---------------- ________ / 2 \/ 4 - x
/ 2 \ / 2 \ | x | | x | 3*|1 + ------|*|-1 + -------| | 2| | 2| \ 4 - x / \ -4 + x / ----------------------------- ________ / 2 \/ 4 - x
