You do not need to simplify. a. y = sin(x cos x) y ´ = cos(x cos x) {[1]cos x + x [–sin x]} = cos(x cos x) (cos x – x sin x) b. y dy dx = cos(sin 2 x) = (cos(sin2x))½ = ½(cos(sin2x))-½ [–sin(sin2x)(2sin x cos x)] = –sin(sin2x) sin x cos x (cos(sin2x))-½ sin(sin 2 x)sin x cos x = cos(sin 2 x) 2. The function h is the composite function defined as h(x) = f (g (x)). The following values for the functions f, g, f ´, and g ´ are given: g(3) = 6, g ´(3) = 4, f ´(3) = 2, and f ´(6) = 7 Find the value of h ´(3). h(x) = f (g (x)) h ´(x) = f ´(g(x)) · g ´(x) h ´(3) = f ´(g(3)) · g ´(3) = f ´(6) · 4 = 7·4 = 28 3. Use the Chain Rule and the Product Rule to give an alternative proof of the Quotient Rule. Quotient Rule: If f and g are both differentiable, then d f ( x) f ( x) g ( x) f ( x) g ( x) = dx g ( x) [ g ( x)]2 Proof: Suppose f and g are both differentiable functions. d f ( x) dx g ( x) d {f (x) [g(x)]–1} dx = f ´(x)[g(x)]–1 + f (x){–1[g(x)]–2g ´(x)} = [g(x)]–2[f ´(x)g(x) – f(x)g ´(x)] f ( x) g ( x) f ( x) g ( x) = [ g ( x)]2 =
