Question 14 Marks
Logarithmic differentiation is a powerful technique to differentiate functions of the form $\text{f}(\text{x})=[\text{u}(\text{x})]^{\text{v}(\text{x})},$ where both $u(x)$ and $v(x)$ are differentiable functions and $f$ and $u$ need to be positive functions. Let function $\text{y}=\text{f}(\text{x})=(\text{u}(\text{x}))^{\text{v}(\text{x})},$ then $\text{y}\ '=\text{y}\Big[\frac{\text{v}(\text{x})}{\text{u}(\text{x})}\text{u}\ '(\text{x})+\text{v}\ '(\text{x})\cdot\log[\text{u}(\text{x})]\Big]$ On the basis of above information, answer the following questions.

Answer
  1. $(a) \text{x}^\text{x}(1+\log\text{x})$
Let $\text{y}=\text{x}^\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\log\text{y}=\text{x}\log\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{y}}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{x}\log\text{x})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\text{x}^\text{x}[1\times\log\text{x}+\text{x}\times\frac{1}{\text{x}}]$
$=\text{x}^\text{x}[1+\log\text{x}]$

$\Rightarrow\log\text{x}=\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\log\text{e}$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}\log\text{x}=\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}\frac{1}{\text{x}}+(\log\text{x})\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=1$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\Big(1-\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\Big)\frac{1}{\log\text{x}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{x}\log\text{x}}(\text{x}-\text{y})$
  1. $(c) (2-\text{x})^3(3+2\text{x})^5\Big[\frac{10}{3+2\text{x}}-\frac{3}{2-\text{x}}\Big]$
$\text{y}=(2-\text{x})^3(3+2\text{x})^5$
$\Rightarrow\log\text{y}=\log(2-\text{x})^3+\log(3+2\text{x})^5$
$=3\log(2-\text{x})+5\log(3+2\text{x})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{y}}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{3\times(-1)}{2-\text{x}}+\frac{5}{3+2\text{x}}\times(2)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=(2-\text{x})^3(3+2\text{x})^5\Big[\frac{10}{3+2\text{x}}-\frac{3}{2-\text{x}}\Big]$
  1. $(d) \text{x}^\text{x}\text{e}^{2\text{x}+5}\cdot(3+\log\text{x})$
$\text{y}=\text{x}^\text{x}\cdot\text{e}^{(2\text{x}+5)}$
$\Rightarrow\log\text{y}=\text{x}\log\text{x}+(2\text{x}+5)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{y}}\cdot\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\Big(\text{x}\cdot\frac{1}{\text{x}}+\log\text{x}\Big)+2$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\text{x}^\text{x}\cdot\text{e}^{2\text{x}+5}\cdot(3+\log\text{x})$

Answer
  1. $(b)\ \frac{-(3\text{x}^2+2\text{xy}+\text{y}^2)}{\text{x}^2+2\text{xy}+3\text{y}^2}$
$\text{x}^3+\text{x}^2\text{y}+\text{xy}^2+\text{y}^3=81$
$\Rightarrow3\text{}^2+\text{x}^2\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+2\text{xy}+2\text{xy}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{y}^2+3\text{y}^2\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=0$
$\Rightarrow(\text{x}^2+2\text{xy}+3\text{y}^2)\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=-3\text{x}^2-2\text{xy}-\text{y}^2$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{-(3\text{x}^2+2\text{xy}+\text{y}^2)}{\text{x}^2+2\text{xy}+3\text{y}^2}$
  1. $(c)\ \frac{\text{x}-\text{y}}{\text{x}(1+\log\text{x})}$
$\text{x}^\text{y}=\text{e}^{\text{x}-\text{y}}$

$\text{y}\times\frac{1}{\text{x}}+\log\text{x}\cdot\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=1-\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}[\log\text{x}+1]=1-\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{x}-\text{y}}{\text{x}[1+\log\text{x}]}$
  1. $(d)\ \frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}(\text{y}\cos\text{y}-1)}$
$\text{e}^{\sin\text{y}}=\text{xy}$

$\sin^2\text{x}+\cos^2\text{y}=1$
$\Rightarrow2\sin\text{x}\cos\text{x}+2\cos\text{y}\Big(-\sin\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)=0$

$\Rightarrow\text{y}=\text{y}(\log\sqrt{\text{x}})$
$\Rightarrow\log\text{y}=\frac{1}{2}(\text{y}\log\text{x})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{y}}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1}{2}\Big[\text{y}\times\frac{1}{\text{x}}+\log\text{x}\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)\Big]$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big\{\frac{1}{\text{y}}-\frac{1}{2}\log\text{x}\Big\}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{y}}{2\text{x}}\times\frac{2\text{y}}{(2-\text{y}\log\text{x})}=\frac{\text{y}^2}{\text{x}(2-\text{y}\log\text{x})}$

Question 34 Marks
Derivative of $y = f(x) w.r.t. x ($if exists$)$ is denoted by $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$ or $f'(x)$ and is called the first order derivative of $y.$ If we take derivative of $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$ again,
then we get $\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)=\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}^2}$ or $f''(x)$ and is called the second order derivative of $y.$ Similarly, $\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\Big(\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}^2}\Big)$ is denoted and defined as $\frac{\text{d}^3\text{y}}{\text{dx}^3}$ or $f'''(x)$ and is known as third order derivative of $y$ and so on.
Based on the above information, answer the following questions.
  1. If $\text{y}=\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\log(\frac{\text{e}}{\text{x}^2})}{\log(\text{ex}^2)}\Big)+\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{3+2\log\text{x}}{1-6\log\text{x}}\Big),$ then $\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}^2}$ is equal to:
  1. $2$
  2. $1$
  3. $0$
  4. $-1$
  1. If $u = x^2 + y^2$ and $x = s + 3t, y = 2s - t,$ then $\frac{\text{d}^2\text{u}}{\text{ds}^2}$ is equal to:
  1. $12$
  2. $32$
  3. $36$
  4. $10$
  1. If $\text{f}(\text{x})=2\log\sin\text{x},$ then $f''(x)$ is equal to:
  1. $2\text{ cosec}^3\text{x}$
  2. $2\cot^2\text{x}-4\text{x}^2\text{cosec}^2\text{x}^2$
  3. $2\text{x}\cot\text{x}^2$
  4. $-2\text{cosec}^2\text{x}$
  1. If $\text{f}(\text{x})=\text{e}^\text{x}\sin\text{x},$ then $f'''(x) =$
  1. $2\text{e}^\text{x}(\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x})$
  2. $2\text{e}^\text{x}(\cos\text{x}-\sin\text{x})$
  3. $2\text{e}^\text{x}(\sin\text{x}-\cos\text{x})$
  4. $2\text{e}^\text{x}\cos\text{x}$
  1. If $\text{y}^2=\text{ax}^2+\text{bx}+\text{c},$ then $\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{y}^3\text{y}_2)=$
  1. $1$
  2. $-1$
  3. $\frac{4\text{ac}-\text{b}^2}{\text{a}^2}$
  4. $0$
Answer
  1. $(c)\ 0$
Given, $\text{y}=\tan^{-1}\Bigg(\frac{\log\big(\frac{\text{e}}{\text{x}^2}\big)}{\log\text{ex}^2}\Bigg)+\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{3+2\log\text{x}}{1-6\log\text{x}}\Big)$
$=\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{1-\log\text{x}^2}{1+\log\text{x}^2}\Big)+\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{3+2\log\text{x}}{1-6\log\text{x}}\Big)$
$=\tan^{-1}(1)-\tan^{-1}(2\log\text{x})+\tan^{-1}(3)+\tan^{-1}(2\log\text{x})$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}=\tan^{-1}(1)+\tan^{-1}(3)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=0$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}^2}=0$
  1. $(d)\ 10$
Given, $\text{x}=\text{s}+3\text{t},\text{y}=2\text{s}-\text{t}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{ds}}=1,\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{ds}}=2$
Now, $\text{u}=\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{du}}{\text{ds}}=2\text{x}\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{ds}}+2\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{ds}}=2\text{x}+4\text{y}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}^2\text{u}}{\text{ds}^2}=2\Big(\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{ds}}\Big)+4\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{ds}}\Big)\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}^2\text{u}}{\text{ds}^2}=2(1)+4(2)=10$
  1.  $(d)-2\text{cosec}^2\text{x}$
We have, $\text{f}(\text{x})=2\log\sin\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f}'(\text{x})=2\cdot\frac{1}{\sin\text{x}}\cdot\cos\text{x}=2\cot\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f}''(\text{x})=-2\text{cosec}^2\text{x}$
  1. $(b) 2\text{e}^\text{x}(\cos\text{x}-\sin\text{x})$
We have, $\text{f}(\text{x})=\text{e}^\text{x}\sin\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f}'(\text{x})=\text{e}^\text{x}\cos\text{x}+\text{e}^\text{x}\sin\text{x}=\text{e}^\text{x}(\cos\text{x}+\sin\text{x})$
$\Rightarrow\text{f}''(\text{x})=\text{e}^\text{x}(\cos\text{x}-\sin\text{x})+\text{e}^\text{x}(\cos\text{x}+\sin\text{x})=2\text{e}^\text{x}\cos\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f}'''(\text{x})=2[\text{e}^\text{x}\cos\text{x}-\text{e}^\text{x}\sin\text{x}]=2\text{e}^\text{x}[\cos\text{x}-\sin\text{x}]$
  1. $(d)\ 0$
Given, $y^2 = ax^2 + bx + c$
$\Rightarrow 2yy_1 = 2ax + b$
$\Rightarrow 2yy_1 + y_1(2y_1) = 2a$
$\Rightarrow\text{yy}_2=\text{a}-\text{y}^2_1$
$\Rightarrow\text{yy}_2=\text{a}-\Big(\frac{2\text{ax}+\text{b}}{2\text{y}}\Big)^2$
$=\frac{4\text{y}^2\text{a}-(4\text{a}^2\text{x}^2+\text{b}^2+4\text{abx})}{4\text{y}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}^3\text{y}_2=\frac{4\text{a}(\text{ax}^2+\text{bx}+\text{c})-(4\text{a}^2\text{x}^2+\text{b}^2+4\text{abx})}{4}$
$=\frac{4\text{ac}-\text{b}^2}{4}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{y}^3\text{y}_2)=0$

  2. f is continuous
  3. f has irremovable discontinuity.
  4. f has removable discontinuity.
Answer
  1. (a) f has removable discontinuity.
Solution:
f(3) = 4
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow3}\text{f}(\text{x})=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow3}\frac{\text{x}^2-9}{\text{x}-3}=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow3}\frac{(\text{x}+3)(\text{x}-3)}{(\text{x}-3)}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow3}(\text{x}+3)=6\because\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow3}\text{f}(\text{x})\neq\text{f}(3)$
$\therefore$ f(x) has removable discontinuity at x = 3.
  1. (c) f has irremovable discontinuit.
Solution:
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow4^-}\text{f}(\text{x})=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow4}(\text{x}+2)=4+2=6$
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow4^+}\text{f}(\text{x})=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow4}(\text{x}+4)=4+4=8$
$\therefore\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow4^-}\text{f}(\text{x})\neq\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow4^+}\text{f}(\text{x})$
$\therefore$ f(x) has an irremovable discontinuity at x = 4.
  1. (a) f has removable discontinuity.
Solution:
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2}\text{f}(\text{x})=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2}\frac{(\text{x}^2-4)}{(\text{x}-2)}=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2}(\text{x}+2)=4$
and f(2) = 5 (given) $\therefore\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2}\text{f}(\text{x})\neq\text{f}(2)$
$\therefore$ f(x) has removable discontinuity at x = 2.
  1. (c) f has irremovable discontinuity.
Solution:
f(0) = 2
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0^-}\text{f}(\text{x})=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{x}+\text{x}}{\text{x}}=2$
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0^+}\text{f}(\text{x})=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{x}-\text{x}}{\text{x}}=0$
$\because\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0^-}\text{f}(\text{x})\neq\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0^+}\text{f}(\text{x})$
$\therefore$ f(x) has an irremovable discontinuity at x = 0.
  1. (d) f has removable discontinuity.
Solution:
f(0) = 7
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\text{f}(\text{x})=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{e}^\text{x}-1}{\log(1+2\text{x})}=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{\Big(\frac{\text{e}^\text{x}-1}{\text{x}}\Big)}{\frac{\log(1+2\text{x})}{2\text{x}}\cdot2}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\because\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\text{f}(\text{x})\neq\text{f}(0)$
$\therefore$ f(x) has removable discontinuity at x = 0.

Question 54 Marks
If a real valued function $f(x)$ is finitely derivable at any point of its domain, it is necessarily continuous at that point. But its converse need not be true.
For example, every polynomial, constant function are both continuous as well as differentiable and inverse trigonometric functions are continuous and differentiable in its domains etc.
Based on the above information, answer the following questions.
  1. If $\text{f}(\text{x})=\begin{cases}\text{x},\text{for x}\leq0\\0,\text{for x}>0\end{cases},$ then at $x = 0$

Question 74 Marks
Let f(x) be a real valued function, then its
  • Left Hand Derivative (L.H.D.) : $\text{Lf}'(\text{a})=\lim_\limits{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(\text{a}-\text{h})-\text{f}(\text{a})}{-\text{h}}$
  • Right Hand Derivative (R.H.D.) : $\text{Rf}'(\text{a})=\lim_\limits{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(\text{a}+\text{h})-\text{f}(\text{a})}{\text{h}}$
Also, a function f(x) is said to be differentiable at x = a if its L.H.D. and R.H.D. at x = a exist and are equal.
For the function $\text{f}(\text{x})=\begin{cases}|\text{x}-3|,\text{x}\geq1\\\\\frac{\text{x}^2}{4}-\frac{3\text{x}}{2}+\frac{13}{4},\text{x}<1\end{cases},$ answer the following questions.

Answer
We have, $\text{f}(\text{x})=\begin{cases}\text{x}-3&,\text{x}\geq3\\3-\text{x}&,1\leq\text{x}<3\\\\\frac{\text{x}^2}{4}-\frac{3\text{x}}{2}+\frac{13}{4}&,\text{x}<1\end{cases}$
  1. (b) -1
Solution:
$\text{Rf}'(1)=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(1+\text{h})-\text{f}(1)}{\text{h}}$
$\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{3-(1+\text{h})-2}{\text{h}}=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}-\frac{\text{h}}{\text{h}}=-1$
  1. (b) -1
Solution:
$\text{Lf}'(1)=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(1-\text{h})-\text{f}(1)}{-\text{h}}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{-1}{\text{h}}\Big[\frac{(1-\text{h})^2}{4}-\frac{3(1-\text{h})}{2}+\frac{13}{4}-2\Big]$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{-1}{\text{h}}\Big(\frac{1+\text{h}^2-2\text{h}-6+6\text{h}+13-8}{-4\text{h}}\Big)$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\Big(\frac{\text{h}^2+4\text{h}}{-4\text{h}}\Big)=-1$
  1. (c) x = 3
Solution:
Since, R.H.D. at x = 3 is 1
and L.H.D. at x = 3 is - 1
$\therefore$ f(x) is non-differentiable at x = 3.
  1. (d) -1
  1. (c) -2
Solution:
From above, we have
$\text{f}'(\text{x})=\frac{\text{x}}{2}-\frac{3}{2},\text{x}<1$
$\therefore\text{f}'(-1)=\frac{-1}{2}-\frac{3}{2}=-2$

Question 84 Marks
A function f(x) is said to be continuous in an open interval (a, b), if it is continuous at every point in this interval.
A function f(x) is said to be continuous in the closed interval [a, b), if f(x) is continuous in (a, b) and $\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\text{f}(\text{a}+\text{h})=\text{f}(\text{a})$ and $\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\text{f}(\text{b}-\text{h})=\text{f}(\text{b})$
If function $\text{f}(\text{x})=\begin{cases}\frac{\sin(\text{a}+1)\text{x}+\sin\text{x}}{\text{x}}&,\text{x}<0\\\text{c}&,\text{x}=0\\\frac{\sqrt{\text{x}+\text{bx}^2}-\sqrt{\text{x}}}{\text{bx}^{\frac{3}{2}}}&,\text{x}>0\end{cases}$ is continuous at x = 0, then answer the following questions.

Answer
$\text{L.H.L.}(\text{at x})=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{\sin(\text{a}+1)\text{x}+\sin\text{x}}{\text{x}}\Big(\frac{0}{0}\text{ form}\Big)$ Using L' Hospital rule, we get $\text{L.H.L.} (\text{at x} = 0)$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}(\text{a}+1)\cos(\text{a}+1)\text{x}+\cos\text{x}=\text{a}+2$ $\text{R.H.L.} (\text{at x} = 0)=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{\sqrt{\text{x}+\text{bx}^2}-\sqrt{\text{x}}}{\text{bx}^\frac{3}{2}}=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{\sqrt{1+\text{bx}}-1}{\text{bx}}$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\text{bx}}+1}=\frac{1}{2}$ Since,f(x) is continuous at x = 0. $\therefore$ From (i) and (ii), we get $\text{a}+2=\text{c}=\frac{1}{2}\Rightarrow\text{a}=-\frac{3}{2},\text{c}=\frac{1}{2}$ Also, value of b does not affect the continuity of f(x), so b can be any real number.
  1. (a) $-\frac{3}{2}$
  1. (d) Any real number.

  3. $\frac{2}{27}\text{x}(2\text{x}^3+5)^3$
  4. $\frac{2}{7}(2\text{x}^3+15)^3$
Answer
  1. (a) $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$

$=\frac{\text{f}'(\tan \text{x})\sec\text{x}}{\text{g}'(\sec\text{x})\tan \text{x}}$
$\therefore\Big[\frac{\text{df}(\tan\text{x})}{\text{dg}(\sec\text{x})}\Big]_{\text{x}=\frac{\pi}{4}}=\frac{\text{f}'(1)\sqrt{2}}{\text{g}'(\sqrt{2})\cdot1}=\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{4\cdot1}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
  1. (b) 1
  1. (c) $3\text{x}^3\text{e}^{\text{x}^3}$
Solution:
Let $\text{y}=\text{e}^{\text{x}^3},\text{z}=\log\text{x}$
Differentiating w.r.t. x, we get
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\text{e}^{\text{x}^3}(3\text{x}^2)=3\text{x}^2\text{e}^{\text{x}^3}$ and $\therefore\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dz}}=\frac{\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}}{\frac{\text{dz}}{\text{dx}}}=\frac{3\text{x}^2\text{e}^{\text{x}^3}}{\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)}=3\text{x}^3\text{e}^{\text{x}^3}$
  1. (a) $2$
Solution:
Let $\text{y}=\cos^{-1}(2\text{x}^2-1)=2\cos^{-1}\text{x}$
Differentiating w.r.t. $\cos^{-1}\text{x},$ we get
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{d}(\cos^{-1}\text{x})}=\frac{2\text{d}(\cos^{-1}\text{x})}{\text{d}(\cos^{-1}\text{x})}=2$
  1. (a) $\frac{2}{27}\text{x}^2(2\text{x}^3+15)^3$
Solution:
We have, $\text{y}=\frac{1}{4}\text{u}^4\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{du}}=\frac{1}{4}\cdot4\text{u}^3=\text{u}^3$
and $\text{u}=\frac{2}{3}\text{x}^3+5\Rightarrow\frac{\text{du}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{2}{3}\cdot3\text{x}^2=2\text{x}^2$
$\therefore\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{du}}\cdot\frac{\text{du}}{\text{dx}}=\text{u}^3\cdot2\text{x}^2=\Big(\frac{2}{3}\text{x}^3+5\Big)^3(2\text{x})^2$
$=\frac{2}{27}\text{x}^2(2\text{x}^3+15)^3$

Answer
  1. (a) $\frac{-\sin\sqrt{\text{x}}}{2\sqrt{\text{x}}}$
Solution:
Let $\text{y}=\cos\sqrt{\text{x}}$
$\therefore\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\cos\sqrt{\text{x}})=-\sin\sqrt{\text{x}}\cdot\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\sqrt{\text{x}})$
$=-\sin\sqrt{\text{x}}\times\frac{1}{2\sqrt{\text{x}}}=\frac{-\sin\sqrt{\text{x}}}{2\sqrt{\text{x}}}$
  1. (a) $\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2-1}{\text{x}^2}\Big)\cdot7^{\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}}\cdot\log7$
Solution:
Let $\text{y}=7^{\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}}\therefore\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\Big(7^{\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}}\Big)$
$=7^{\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}}\cdot\log7\cdot\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}\Big(\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)=7^{\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}}\cdot\log7\cdot\Big(1-\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}\Big)$
$=\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2-1}{\text{x}^2}\Big)\cdot7^{\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}}\cdot\log7$
  1. (a) $\frac{1}{2}\sec^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}$
Solution:
Let $\text{y}=\sqrt\frac{{1-\cos\text{x}}}{1+\cos\text{x}}=\sqrt{\frac{1-1+2\sin^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}}{2\cos^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}-1+1}}=\tan\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{2}\Big)$
$\therefore\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\sec^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}\cdot\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\sec^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}$
  1. (b) $\frac{1}{\text{x}^2+\text{b}^2}+\frac{1}{\text{x}^2+\text{a}^2}$

Solution:
Let $\text{y}=\sec^{-1}\text{x}+\text{cosec}^{-1}\frac{\text{x}}{\sqrt{\text{x}^2-1}}$
Put $\text{x}=\sec\theta\Rightarrow\theta=\sec^{-1}\text{x}$
$\therefore\text{y}=\sec^{-1}(\sec\theta)+\text{cosec}^{-1}\Big(\frac{\sec\theta}{\sqrt{\sec^2\theta-1}}\Big)$
$=\theta+\sin^{-1}\Big[\sqrt{1-\cos^2\theta}\Big]$
$=\theta+\sin^{-1}(\sin\theta)=\theta+\theta=2\theta=2\sec^{-1}\text{x}$
$\therefore\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=2\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\sec^{-1}\text{x})=2\times\frac{1}{|\text{x}|\sqrt{\text{x}^2-1}}$
$=\frac{2}{|\text{x}|\sqrt{\text{x}^2-1}}$
