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):px2+qx+rax+b
Answer
Let f (x)= px2+qx+rax+b
By quotient rule,
f'(x)=- (px2+qx+r) dxd(ax+b)-(ax+b) \frac{d}{dx}$$\frac{(px^2+qx+r)}{(px^2+qx+r)^2}
=(px2+qx+r)(a)-(ax+b) (2px + q) (px2+qx+r)2(px2+qx+r)
