Homework Statement


(d/dx)∫from(x^(1/2)) to x^2 of tan(9t) dt



Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution



2x((tan(9x^2))-(tan(x^(1/2)))

I am not sure what I am doing wrong here.

You are using the fundamental theorem of calculus here, right? Can you explain how you got that? There's a few parts of right things in there. But overall, it's a mess.

Your post is very hard to read. Please consider typing up your equations with LaTeX. Here is a short guide: https://www.physicsforums.com/showpost.php?p=3977517&postcount=3 It would really help us a lot.
 


Also, there is no such word as "intergral" in English. I am editing your title.
 


I would write the original function as
\int_{x^{1/2}}^{x^2} tan(9t)dt= \int_{x^{1/2}}^a tan(9t)dt+ \int_a^{x^2} tan(9t) dt
= \int_a^{x^2} tan(9t)dt- \int_a^{x^{1/2}} tan(9t)dt

NOW use the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. It looks to me like you forgot the derivative of the "x^{1/2}" term.
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
