Mathematics Question on Limits and derivations
Find the derivative of the following functions (it is to be understood that a, b, c, d, p, q, r and s are fixed nonzero constants and m and n are integers):(cx+d)(ax+b)
Answer
Let f(x)= (cx+d)(ax+b)
By quotient rule,
f'(x)= (cx+d)2(cx+d)dxd(ax+b)−(ax+b)dxd(cx+d)
=(cx+d)2(ex+d)(a)−(ax+b)(c)
=(cx+d)2acx+ad−acx−bc
=(cx+d)2ad−bc
