Remark

Only if you define it into existence. The square root of a negative number is does not exist in the real world.

√(-1) is defined to be i

That is what is termed a complex number.

No, and therefore, the answer to a negative square root will be "i" which stands for "imaginary" (a group of numbers).


Example:

\sqrt{-2} = i

How to differentiate ?
Bas_tet [7]

Use the power, product, and chain rules:

y = x^2 (3x-1)^3

• product rule

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = \dfrac{\mathrm d(x^2)}{\mathrm dx}\times(3x-1)^3 + x^2\times\dfrac{\mathrm d(3x-1)^3}{\mathrm dx}

• power rule for the first term, and power/chain rules for the second term:

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 2x\times(3x-1)^3 + x^2\times3(x-1)^2\times\dfrac{\mathrm d(3x-1)}{\mathrm dx}

• power rule

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 2x\times(3x-1)^3 + x^2\times3(3x-1)^2\times3

Now simplify.

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 2x(3x-1)^3 + 9x^2(3x-1)^2 \\\\ \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = x(3x-1)^2 \times (2(3x-1) + 9x) \\\\ \boxed{\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = x(3x-1)^2(15x-2)}

You could also use logarithmic differentiation, which involves taking logarithms of both sides and differentiating with the chain rule.

On the right side, the logarithm of a product can be expanded as a sum of logarithms. Then use other properties of logarithms to simplify

\ln(y) = \ln\left(x^2(3x-1)^3\right) \\\\ \ln(y) =  \ln\left(x^2\right) + \ln\left((3x-1)^3\right) \\\\ \ln(y) = 2\ln(x) + 3\ln(3x-1)

Differentiate both sides and you end up with the same derivative:

\dfrac1y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = \dfrac2x + \dfrac9{3x-1} \\\\ \dfrac1y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = \dfrac{15x-2}{x(3x-1)} \\\\ \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = \dfrac{15x-2}{x(3x-1)} \times x^2(3x-1)^3 \\\\ \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = x(15x-2)(3x-1)^2
