Homework Help Overview

The discussion revolves around the differentiation of a function defined by an integral, specifically $$y=\left( \int_0^x (t^{3}+1)^{10}\, dt\right) ^3$$. Participants reference the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC) and differentiation rules such as the chain rule and power rule.

Discussion Character

  • Conceptual clarification, Mathematical reasoning

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • One participant attempts to differentiate the given function using the FTC and discusses the application of the chain rule and power rule. Others inquire about the context of the original post and the meaning of "r/calculus".

Discussion Status

The discussion includes attempts to clarify the differentiation process and the context of the subreddit mentioned. While some participants seek clarification on the subreddit, there is no explicit consensus on the mathematical approach being discussed.

Contextual Notes

One participant indicates that no homework help is required, suggesting a focus on sharing LaTeX formatting rather than solving a homework problem. The relevance of the subreddit context is also questioned.

Homework Statement
If $$y=\left( \int_0^x (t^{3}+1)^{10}\, dt\right) ^3$$
Find ##\tfrac{dy}{dx}##
Relevant Equations
I hope it is ok for me to post here, I just needed ##\LaTeX##. Thank you!

FTC, chain rule, power rule
I hope it is ok for me to borrow this post: No HW help required here. I just wanted to have LaTeX enabled forum to post my answer to this thread in r/calculus

Work: If $$y= \left( \int_0^x (t^{3}+1)^{10}\, dt\right) ^3 $$
then $$\begin{gathered} \tfrac{dy}{dx} =3 \left( \int_0^x (t^{3}+1)^{10}\, dt\right) ^2\cdot \tfrac{d}{dx} \left( \int_0^x (t^{3}+1)^{10}\, dt\right) \quad (1)\\ =\boxed{3 \left( \int_0^x (t^{3}+1)^{10}\, dt\right) ^2\cdot (x^{3}+1)^{10}}\quad (2) \\ \end{gathered}$$

where (1) is power rule followed by the chain rule and (2) is FTC.

What's an r/calculus?

The lower case “r/“ prefix denotes that it’s followed by the name of a subreddit (ie it’s a Reddit forum basically).

To be honest, the only one you really need to know is r/prequelmemes
