Find the derivative of the following functions (it is to be understood that \(a, \,b,\, c,\, d,\, p,\, q,\, r\) and \(s\) are fixed non-zero constants and \(m\) and \(n\) are integers), \((x+a)\).
\(\text{Let f(x) = x + a. Accordingly } f(x+h)=x+h+a\)
\(\text{By first principle,}\)
\(f'(x)=\)\(\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}\)
\(=\underset{h→0}{lim} \,\frac{x+h+-x-a}{h}\)
\(= \underset{h→0}{lim} \,(\frac{h}{h})\)
\(=\underset{h→0}{lim} \,(1)\)
\(=1\)
Let the function $ f(x) $ be defined as follows: $$ f(x) = \begin{cases} (1 + | \sin x |)^{\frac{a}{|\sin x|}}, & -\frac{\pi}{6}<x<0 \\b, & x = 0 \\ \frac{\tan 2x}{\tan 3x}, & 0<x<\frac{\pi}{6} \end{cases} $$ Then the values of $ a $ and $ b $ are:
LIST I | LIST II | ||
A. | \(\lim\limits_{x\rightarrow0}(1+sinx)^{2\cot x}\) | I. | e-1/6 |
B. | \(\lim\limits_{x\rightarrow0}e^x-(1+x)/x^2\) | II. | e |
C. | \(\lim\limits_{x\rightarrow0}(\frac{sinx}{x})^{1/x^2}\) | III. | e2 |
D. | \(\lim\limits_{x\rightarrow\infty}(\frac{x+2}{x+1})^{x+3}\) | IV. | ½ |
Give reasons for the following.
(i) King Tut’s body has been subjected to repeated scrutiny.
(ii) Howard Carter’s investigation was resented.
(iii) Carter had to chisel away the solidified resins to raise the king’s remains.
(iv) Tut’s body was buried along with gilded treasures.
(v) The boy king changed his name from Tutankhaten to Tutankhamun.
Mathematically, a limit is explained as a value that a function approaches as the input, and it produces some value. Limits are essential in calculus and mathematical analysis and are used to define derivatives, integrals, and continuity.
A derivative is referred to the instantaneous rate of change of a quantity with response to the other. It helps to look into the moment-by-moment nature of an amount. The derivative of a function is shown in the below-given formula.
