Find dy/dx if f(x) = (x + 8)^3x.
vlabodo [156]
This is quite a complex problem. I wrote out a really nice solution but I can't work out how to put it on the website as the app is very poorly made. Still, I'll just have to type it all in...

Okay so you need to use a technique called logarithmic differentiation. It seems quite unnatural to start with but the result is very impressive.

Let y = (x+8)^(3x)

Take the natural log of both sides:

ln(y) = ln((x+8)^(3x))

By laws of logarithms, this can be rearranged:

ln(y) = 3xln(x+8)

Next, differentiate both sides. By implicit differentiation:

d/dx(ln(y)) = 1/y dy/dx

The right hand side is harder to differentiate. Using the substitution u = 3x and v = ln(x+8):

d/dx(3xln(x+8)) = d/dx(uv)

du/dx = 3

Finding dv/dx is harder, and involves the chain rule. Let a = x+ 8:

v = ln(a)
da/dx = 1
dv/da = 1/a

By chain rule:

dv/dx = dv/da * da/dx = 1/a = 1/(x+8)

Finally, use the product rule:

d/dx(uv) = u * dv/dx + v * du/dx = 3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8)

This overall produces the equation:

1/y * dy/dx = 3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8)

We want to solve for dy/dx, achievable by multiplying both sides by y:

dy/dx = y(3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8))

Since we know y = (x+8)^(3x):

dy/dx = ((x+8)^(3x))(3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8))

Neatening this up a bit, we factorise out 3/(x+8):

dy/dx = (3(x+8)^(3x-1))(x + (x+8)ln(x+8))

Well wasn't that a marathon? It's a nightmare typing that in, I hope you can follow all the steps.

I hope this helped you :)

A radio transmission tower is 170 feet tall. how long should a guy wire be if it is attached 15 feet from the top and is to make
beks73 [17]
The image of the given scenario is attached below.

A right angled triangle is formed, with one angle equal to 27 degrees. The perpendicular side is 155 and we are to find the length of guy wire which makes the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle.

Using the formula of sine, we can write:

sin(27)= \frac{155}{x}  \\  \\ &#10;x= \frac{155}{sin(27)} \\  \\ &#10;x=341

Rounding to nearest whole number, the length of the guy wire that must be attached is 341 feet.
