Question 1.
Differentiate the following with respect to x.
(i) 3x4 – 2x3 + x + 8

Solution:

(i) Let y = 3x4 – 2x3 + x + 8

(v) Let y = x3 ex
[∵ We have product of two functions, so use product rule]
= x3 ex + ex (3x2)
= ex (x3 + 3x2)
= x2 e(x + 3)

(vi) Let y = (x2 – 3x + 2) (x + 1)
y = x3 – 3x2 + 2x + x2 – 3x + 2
y = x3 – 2x2 – x + 2

(vii) Let y = x4 – 3 sin x + cos x

= 4x3 – 3 cos x – sin x

Question 2.
Differentiate the following with respect to x.

Solution:

Question 3.
Differentiate the following with respect to x.
(i) x sin x
(ii) ex sin x
(iii) ex (x + log x)
(iv) sin x cos x
(v) x3 ex
Solution:
(i) Let y = x sin x

= x cos x + sin x . 1
= x cos x + sin x

(ii) Let y = ex sin x

= ex cos x + sin x ex
= ex (cos x + sin x)

(iii) Let y = ex (x + log x)

Question 4.
Differentiate the following with respect to x.
(i) sin2 x
(ii) cos2 x
(iii) cos3 x

Solution:
For the following problems chain rule to be used:
