1)Find dy/dx by differentiating with respect to x the following expressions.
\n" ); document.write( "a) y=x^3-6x^2+9x-1 = 3x^2-12x+8 *** + 9
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "b) y=1/2x -sqrtx = 1/2-1/2x^-1/2 = (x - sqrt(x))/2x (same answer)
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "c) y=e^x-e^-x = e^x+e^-x
\n" ); document.write( "d) y=25cosx--sinx = -25sinx-cosx ** there are 2 minus signs??
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "e) y= 3sinhx-4coshx = 3hsinhx+4hsinhx Is it sin(hx), or hyperbolic?
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "f) y= (x^2+1) sinhx = 1
\n" ); document.write( "2 Use product rule to obtain dy/dx for the following
\n" ); document.write( "a) y=x^2e^x = 2x(e^x)+x^2(e^x)
\n" ); document.write( "b) y= xtanx = 1(tanx)+x(sec^2x)
\n" ); document.write( "c) y= x^4ln(x)= 4x^3(ln(x))+x^4(1/x) = 4x^3*ln(x) + x^3
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "d) y= x^2sinx = 2x(sinx)+x^2(cosx)
\n" ); document.write( "e) y= e^-xcosx = -e^-x(cos x)+ e^-x (-sinx)
\n" ); document.write( "f) y=(x^2+1)sinhx = (2x +1) (sinhx)+(x^2+1)(cosh x)
\n" ); document.write( "Not (2x + 1) *****
\n" ); document.write( "= 2x*sinh(x) + (x^2+1)*cosh(x)
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Finally, use the quotient rule to differentiate with respect to x, simplifying as far as possible.
\n" ); document.write( "a) y= sinx/1+e^-x = 1+e^-x(cosx)-(1-e^x)sinx/(1+e^-x)^2
\n" ); document.write( "b) y= lnx/1+x^2 = 1+x^2(1/x)-1+2x(ln x)/(1+x^2)^2
\n" ); document.write( "
