The forum is pretty dead right now.

I'd suggest asking your teacher or a friend.

Okay......i'll take an example to explain it.

Let's say you're given y = x(x+1) and you're asked to differentiate using the product rule.

Product rule = dy/dx = u.dv/dx + v.du/dx

In this case u = x and v = x+1

So du/dx = 1 and dv/dx = 1

Now you replace in the formula of the product rule to get dy/dx = x(1) + (x+1)(1) = 2x + 1

Hope it helps :D

Hello
This is a question from P3 Nov 2002
Please help!
The curve y= e^x + 4e^-2x has one stationary point. Find the x coordinate of the stationary point and determine whether it is max or min

I differentiated the equation and got till e^x - 8e^-2x and equated it to zero but I'm stuck from there.
It'd be great if someone could guide me

Thanks! :)

e^x - 8e^-2x can also be written as (e^3x -8)/e^2x
Equate this to zero and u will get e^3x = 8 and then solve for x

u=e-3x

v=tanx

du/dx = -3e-3x

dv/dx = sec2x

Hence,

dy/dx = e-3xsec2x -3e-3xtanx

e-3x(sec2x - 3tanx)

Using 1+tan2x=sec2x

e-3x(tan2x - 3tanx + 1)

Solve the part in bold as a normal quadratic equation to give :

x = 1.206,0.365

dA/dt = 4/3*k*\pir3

dA/dr = 8\pir

This should be simple to solve now.
