Question
Question: Find the value of \({{y}_{n}}\), when \(y={{e}^{x}}(3{{x}^{2}}-4)\), Find \({{y}_{n}}\)....
Find the value of yn, when y=ex(3x2−4), Find yn.
Solution
Hint: In this question first we will Select a term as u and v. Differentiate it till you get zero by using Leibnitz theorem.
Complete step-by-step answer:
So to find yn means to find dxndny,
So for nth derivative we know that we should use Leibnitz theorem,
The product rule is a formula used to find the derivatives of products of two or more functions. It may be stated as,
(f.g)′=f′.g+f.g′
or in Leibnitz's notation,
dxd(u.v)=dxdu.v+u.dxdv
In different notation it can be written as,
d(uv)=udv+vdu
The product rule can be considered a special case of the chain rule for several variables.
So the chain rule is,
dxd(ab)=∂a∂(ab)dxda+∂b∂(ab)dxdb
So we have to use the Leibnitz theorem,
So Leibnitz Theorem provides a useful formula for computing thenthderivative of a product of two functions. This theorem (Leibnitz theorem) is also called a theorem for successive differentiation.
This theorem is used for finding the nth derivative of a product. The Leibnitz formula expresses the derivative on nthorder of the product of two functions.
If y=u.v then dxndn(u.v)=uvn+nc1u1vn−1+nc2u2vn−2+.......+ncrurvn−r+....+unv……(1)
The above theorem is Leibnitz theorem,
So Now Let us consider u=3x2−4 and v=ex
Here now differentiatingufor first derivativeu1,then second derivativeu2and then third derivativeu3.
So we get the derivatives as,
So we get u1,u2,u3,
So u1=6x, u2=6,u3=0…..(2)
Also differentiating forv, For first , second,nthderivatives , (n−1)thderivatives, (n−2)ndderivative,
So we get the derivatives as,
same for v1=ex,v2=ex, v3=ex Sovn=ex,vn−1=ex,vn−2=ex ………(3)
Now we have to substitute (2) and (3) in (1), that is substituting in Leibnitz theorem,
We get,
⇒ dxndn((3x2−4)ex)=(3x2−4)ex+nc16xex+nc26ex
⇒ dxndn((3x2−4)ex)=(3x2−4)ex+n6xex+2n(n−1)6ex………………(we knownc1=nand nc2=2n(n−1))
So simplifying in simple manner we get,
dxndn((3x2−4)ex)=(3x2−4)ex+6nxex+3n(n−1)exdxndn((3x2−4)ex)=ex((3x2−4)+6nx+3n(n−1))
As we want to find fornth derivative, So we get the final answer as,
Hence yn=ex((3x2−4)+6nx+3n(n−1))
Note: Be careful using Leibnitz theorem. Use proper substitution of u and v. Don’t be confused while applying the u and v. While solving confusion occurs. Use the differentiation in the correct manner. Be thorough with nc1=nand more. Use proper substitution ofuand v. Don’t jumble between u1=6x,u2=6etc.
