The derivative is 1/(1 + cosx)
The derivative of x divided by 3 is 1/3. This can be found using the power rule of differentiation, where the derivative of x^n is nx^(n-1). In this case, x can be written as x^1, so the derivative is 1(1/3)*x^(1-1) = 1/3.
f(x)=xln(x) this function is treated as u*v u=x v=ln(x) The derivative of a product is f'(x)=u*v'+v*u' plugging the values back in you get: f'(x)=(x*dlnx/x)+(ln*dx/dx) The derivative of lnx=1/x x=u dlnu/dx=(1/u)*(du/dx) dx/dx=1 x=u dun/dx=nun-1 dx1/dx=1*x1-1 = x0=1 f'(x)=x*(1/x)+lnx*1 f'(x)=1+lnx Now for the second derivative f''(x)=d1/dx+dlnx/dx the derivative of a constant, such as 1, is 0 and knowing that the derivative of lnx=1/x you get f''(x)=(1/x)
(1/2(x^-1/2))/x
The derivative of 2/x can be found using the quotient rule in calculus. The quotient rule states that the derivative of f(x)/g(x) is [g(x)f'(x) - f(x)g'(x)] / [g(x)]^2. Applying this rule to 2/x, where f(x) = 2 and g(x) = x, the derivative is calculated as [x0 - 21] / x^2, which simplifies to -2/x^2. Therefore, the derivative of 2/x is -2/x^2.
