hi houssamxd! :smile:

(is the question to find dy/dx? :confused:)

why can't you just use the first of your "relevant equations"?

$$\text{Let}~ G(x) = \int_0^x (t^3 + 1)^{10}dt$$

Then y = [G(x)]3

How would you find dy/dx?
 
So your question is to find the derivative d u^3/dx where u= \int_a^x f(t)dt?

Surely, you have learned the chain rule:
\frac{dy}{dx}= \frac{dy}{du}\frac{du}{dx}

And to find du/dx, you need the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" which you give as a "relevant equation".
 
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...
