Differentiate the following functions with respect to x:
x2 sin x log x
Let, y = x2 sin x log x
We have to find dy/dx
As we can observe that y is a product of three functions say u, v & w where,
u = x2
v = sin x
w = log x
∴ y = uvw
As we know that to find the derivative of product of three function we apply product rule of differentiation.
By product rule, we have –
…equation 1
As, u = x2
∴ …equation 2 {∵
}
As, v = sin x
…equation 3 {∵
}
As, w = log x
∴ …equation 4 {∵
}
∴ from equation 1, we can find dy/dx
∴
using equation 2, 3 & 4, we have –
⇒
Hence,
