Well uh first let's find the value of the problem, 1/2 * 2/3 * 4/5 = 4/15. Then we need to apply associative property 1/2(2/3*4/5). we do 2/3 * 4/5 first, we get 8/15. Then we multiply 8/15 by 1/2 = 4/15. We applied associative property and we still got the same results as without any properties applied.

Derivative Notation

Basic Power Rule:

f(x) = cxⁿ
f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Derivative Rule [Chain Rule]: $\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[f(g(x))] =f'(g(x)) \cdot g'(x)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

$\displaystyle H(x) = \sqrt[3]{F(x)}$

Step 2: Differentiate

Rewrite function [Exponential Rule - Root Rewrite]: $\displaystyle H(x) = [F(x)]^\bigg{\frac{1}{3}}$
Chain Rule: $\displaystyle H'(x) = \frac{d}{dx} \bigg[ [F(x)]^\bigg{\frac{1}{3}} \bigg] \cdot \frac{d}{dx}[F(x)]$
Basic Power Rule: $\displaystyle H'(x) = \frac{1}{3}[F(x)]^\bigg{\frac{1}{3} - 1} \cdot F'(x)$
Simplify: $\displaystyle H'(x) = \frac{F'(x)}{3}[F(x)]^\bigg{\frac{-2}{3}}$
Rewrite [Exponential Rule - Rewrite]: $\displaystyle H'(x) = \frac{F'(x)}{3[F(x)]^\bigg{\frac{2}{3}}}$

Step 3: Evaluate

Substitute in x [Derivative]: $\displaystyle H'(5) = \frac{F'(5)}{3[F(5)]^\bigg{\frac{2}{3}}}$
Substitute in function values: $\displaystyle H'(5) = \frac{6}{3(8)^\bigg{\frac{2}{3}}}$
Exponents: $\displaystyle H'(5) = \frac{6}{3(4)}$
Multiply: $\displaystyle H'(5) = \frac{6}{12}$
Simplify: $\displaystyle H'(5) = \frac{1}{2}$
