TEST 3 - Solutions

November 2010

1. [8 Marks]
Find the derivative of the following functions using the appropriate rules of dierentiation:
[2] (a) () = (5 + 33 + 1)(72 23). (Do not simplify.)
[3] (b) () =

22
. (Simplify the numerator.)
33 + 5

[3] (c) () = 2(1 32 )1/4 .


Solution:
(a) () = (5 + 33 + 1) (72 23) + (5 + 33 + 1)(72 23) =
= (54 + 92 )(72 23) + (5 + 33 + 1)(14 1).
(b) () =

6. [ 5 Marks] Find the second derivative of the function () = (22 5)4 . Simplify the
nal answer so that it is presented as a product.
Solution:
() = 4(22 5)3 (22 5) = 16(22 5)3 .
[

() = (16) (22 5)3 + 16 (22 5)3 = 16(22 5)3 + 16 3(22 5)2 (22 5)
= 16(22 5)3 + 1922 (22 5)2 = 16(22 5)2 [22 5 + 122 ] = 16(22 5)2 (142 5).
