Find the Derivative - d/d@VAR f(x)=e^( square root of x+21)+e^p
Problem
Solution
Identify the components of the function
ƒ(x)=e√(,x+21)+ep noting thatep is a constant with respect tox Apply the sum rule for derivatives, which states that the derivative of a sum is the sum of the derivatives.
Differentiate the constant term
ep Since it does not contain the variablex its derivative is zero.
Apply the chain rule to the first term
e√(,x+21) The derivative ofeu iseu⋅d(u)/d(x) whereu=√(,x+21)
Differentiate the inner function
√(,x+21) using the power rule, where√(,x+21)=(x+21)(1/2)
Simplify the expression by noting that
d(x+21)/d(x)=1
Combine the results to find the final derivative.
