Answer
Problem 2:
Explanation:
Step1: Differentiate implicitly
Differentiate (y^{3}x+(x - y)^{4}=10x-5y) with respect to (x). Using the product rule ((uv)^\prime = u^\prime v+uv^\prime) for (y^{3}x) ((u = y^{3}), (v=x)), we have (3y^{2}y^\prime x + y^{3}). Using the chain - rule ((u^{n})^\prime=nu^{n - 1}u^\prime) for ((x - y)^{4}) ((u=x - y), (n = 4)), we get (4(x - y)^{3}(1 - y^\prime)). The derivative of (10x-5y) is (10-5y^\prime). So, (3xy^{2}y^\prime+y^{3}+4(x - y)^{3}(1 - y^\prime)=10-5y^\prime).
Step2: Substitute (x = 1) and (y=-1)
Substitute (x = 1) and (y=-1) into (3xy^{2}y^\prime+y^{3}+4(x - y)^{3}(1 - y^\prime)=10-5y^\prime). First, calculate the values: (3\times1\times(-1)^{2}y^\prime+(-1)^{3}+4(1-(-1))^{3}(1 - y^\prime)=10-5y^\prime). (3y^\prime-1 + 4\times8(1 - y^\prime)=10-5y^\prime). (3y^\prime-1+32 - 32y^\prime=10-5y^\prime). (-29y^\prime + 31=10-5y^\prime). (-29y^\prime+5y^\prime=10 - 31). (-24y^\prime=-21), then (y^\prime=\frac{7}{8}).
Step3: Use the point - slope form
The point - slope form of a line is (y - y_{1}=m(x - x_{1})), where ((x_{1},y_{1})=(1,-1)) and (m = y^\prime=\frac{7}{8}). (y+1=\frac{7}{8}(x - 1)), or (y=\frac{7}{8}x-\frac{7}{8}-1=\frac{7}{8}x-\frac{15}{8})
Problem 3:
Explanation:
Step1: Take the natural logarithm
Given (y = x^{\cos x}), take (\ln) of both sides: (\ln y=\cos x\ln x).
Step2: Differentiate both sides
Differentiate (\ln y=\cos x\ln x) with respect to (x). Using the product rule ((uv)^\prime = u^\prime v+uv^\prime) ((u=\cos x), (v = \ln x)), we have (\frac{1}{y}y^\prime=-\sin x\ln x+\frac{\cos x}{x}).
Step3: Solve for (y^\prime)
Multiply both sides by (y=x^{\cos x}) to get (y^\prime=x^{\cos x}\left(\frac{\cos x}{x}-\sin x\ln x\right))
Problem 4:
Explanation:
Step1: Establish the relationship
We know that (h = 130\sin\theta) (from the right - triangle, (\sin\theta=\frac{h}{130})).
Step2: Differentiate with respect to time (t)
Differentiate (h = 130\sin\theta) with respect to (t) using the chain - rule (\frac{dh}{dt}=130\cos\theta\frac{d\theta}{dt}). When (h = 120), (\sin\theta=\frac{120}{130}=\frac{12}{13}), then (\cos\theta=\sqrt{1-\sin^{2}\theta}=\sqrt{1-\left(\frac{12}{13}\right)^{2}}=\frac{5}{13}). Given (\frac{d\theta}{dt}=\frac{1}{10}) radians per minute.
Step3: Calculate (\frac{dh}{dt})
Substitute (\cos\theta=\frac{5}{13}) and (\frac{d\theta}{dt}=\frac{1}{10}) into (\frac{dh}{dt}=130\cos\theta\frac{d\theta}{dt}). (\frac{dh}{dt}=130\times\frac{5}{13}\times\frac{1}{10}=5)
