Question 01 (b) |
---|
For this question, the exam asks to put your answer in the box provided but also to show your work. This question is worth 3 marks. Full marks is given for correct answers placed in the box and at most 1 mark is given for an incorrect answer. You are required to simplify your answers as much as possible. Find the derivative , if
|
Make sure you understand the problem fully: What is the question asking you to do? Are there specific conditions or constraints that you should take note of? How will you know if your answer is correct from your work only? Can you rephrase the question in your own words in a way that makes sense to you? |
If you are stuck, check the hints below. Read the first one and consider it for a while. Does it give you a new idea on how to approach the problem? If so, try it! If after a while you are still stuck, go for the next hint. |
Hint 1 |
---|
Remember that the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus says that
|
Hint 2 |
---|
Recall that |
Checking a solution serves two purposes: helping you if, after having used all the hints, you still are stuck on the problem; or if you have solved the problem and would like to check your work.

Please rate my easiness! It's quick and helps everyone guide their studies. Using Hint 2, we may immediately rewrite as We would like to use Hint 1, but it would only be applicable if the upper limit of integration were , which in this case is not true. So we define
From Hint 1, we see immediately that . We also see that . Using the chain rule, we can then compute that |
