The discussion revolves around differentiating the expression sqrt[10/(4+x)], which falls under the subject area of calculus, specifically focusing on differentiation techniques.
Participants are actively engaging with the problem, with some providing their attempts at differentiation and others asking for clarification on specific steps. There is a collaborative effort to explore the differentiation process without reaching a definitive conclusion.
Some participants have noted confusion regarding the inclusion of the square root in their differentiation attempts, indicating a potential gap in understanding how to apply the chain rule effectively in this context.
Could you show your attempt at differentiating the expression?Fairy111 said:i need to differentiate the following:
sqrt[10/(4+x)]
so i re-wrote it as:
[10(4+x)^-1]^1/2
but am getting very confused when i try to differentiate it.
any help would be great! cheers
