y=x^2+4x+3/square root x
i did this
s
x^2+4x+3) square root x/ sq x * sq x
sq x *x^2)+4x*sq x+ 3/1
i did this
s
x^2+4x+3) square root x/ sq x * sq x
sq x *x^2)+4x*sq x+ 3/1

afcwestwarrior said:i made all the sq x equal 1/2x^-1/2
so what am i suppost to do, i know its suppost to be 3/2 sq x + 2/sqx - 3/2x sq x
afcwestwarrior said:thats it, on this one u don't use the quotient rule, i could, but there's a way since square root of x is a negative number

Differentiation is a mathematical process that involves finding the rate of change of a function with respect to its independent variable. In simpler terms, it is the process of finding the slope of a curve at a specific point.
Differentiation is important because it helps us to understand the behavior of a function and its rate of change. It is used extensively in mathematical and scientific fields to solve problems related to motion, optimization, and rates of change.
No, not all functions can be differentiated. A function must be continuous and have a defined slope at every point in order to be differentiated. Some functions, such as step functions and absolute value functions, do not have a defined slope at every point and therefore cannot be differentiated.
To differentiate a function, you need to apply the rules of differentiation, which involve finding the derivative of each term in the function. The derivative is a measure of the slope of a function at a specific point.
Some of the most common rules of differentiation include the power rule, product rule, quotient rule, and chain rule. The power rule states that the derivative of a function raised to a power is equal to the power multiplied by the function raised to the power minus one. The product rule and quotient rule are used to find the derivatives of products and quotients of functions, respectively. The chain rule is used to find the derivative of a function within a function.
