Use logarithmic differentiation to find the derivatives of each of the functions in Exercises 49–58.

f(x)=2x+13x

Short Answer

Expert verified

The derivative of function isy'=2x+13x6x2x+1+3ln(2x+1)x

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information

The given function isf(x)=2x+13x

02

Step 2. Calculation    

First, we will take the log on both sides and then differentiate it,

lny=ln2x+13xlny=3x·ln(2x+1)1yy'=3x2x+12+ln(2x+1)x3y'=2x+13x6x2x+1+3ln(2x+1)x

For each function graphed in Exercises 65-68, determine the values of xat which ffails to be continuous and/or differentiable. At such points, determine any left or right continuity or differentiability. Sketch secant lines supporting your answers.

Stuart left his house at noon and walked north on Pine Street for 20minutes. At that point he realized he was late for an appointment at the dentist, whose office was located south of Stuart’s house on Pine Street; fearing he would be late, Stuart sprinted south on Pine Street, past his house, and on to the dentist’s office. When he got there, he found the office closed for lunch; he was 10minutes early for his 12:40appointment. Stuart waited at the office for 10minutes and then found out that his appointment was actually for the next day, so he walked back to his house. Sketch a graph that describes Stuart’s position over time. Then sketch a graph that describes Stuart’s velocity over time.

A tomato plant given xounces of fertilizer will successfully bear T(x)pounds of tomatoes in a growing season.

(a) In real-world terms, what does T(5)represent and what are its units? What does T'(5)represent and what are its units?

(b) A study has shown that this fertilizer encourages tomato production when less than 20ounces are used, but inhibits production when more than 20ounces are used. When is T(x)positive and when is T(x)negative? When is T'(x)positive and when is T'(x)negative?
