Use logarithmic differentiation to find the derivative of the function. y = x4 sin x

Sagot :

The derivative of the function is dy/dx = 4([tex]x^{4sinx}[/tex])[(sin x) / x + (cos x) (ln x)]

y = [tex]x^{4sin x}[/tex]

Taking the log of both sides:

ln y = sin x ln [tex]x^{4}[/tex] = (sin x) * (4 ln x) = 4 (sin x)(ln x)

Now differentiate both sides.  On the left you'll need to use the chain rule, and on the right you'll use the product rule:

1/y dy/dx = 4[(sin x) (1/x) + (cos x)(ln x)] = 4 [(sin x) / x + (cos x)(ln x)]

Multiply both sides by y

dy/dx = y * 4 [(sin x) / x + (cos x)(ln x)]

Since y = [tex]x^{4sinx}[/tex], we can rewrite this as:

dy/dx = [tex]x^{4sinx}[/tex] * 4 [(sin x) / x + (cos x)(ln x)]

dy/dx = 4[tex]x^{4sinx}[/tex] [(sin x) / x + (cos x)(ln x)]

Chain rule is the formula used to find the derivative of a composite function. Product rule is used to find derivative of products of two or more functions.

Therefore, the derivative of the function y = [tex]x^{4sin x}[/tex] is dy/dx = 4([tex]x^{4sinx}[/tex])[(sin x) / x + (cos x) (ln x)]
