Math Problem Statement

Use part one of the fundamental theorem of calculus to find the derivative of the function. y = 3x + 5 t 1 + t3 dt

Solution

To solve this using the First Part of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, we need to take the derivative of the function:

y=13x+5t1+t3dty = \int_{1}^{3x+5} \frac{t}{1 + t^3} \, dt

We have an integral with a variable upper limit of integration. According to the First Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, if we have a function of the form:

y=ag(x)f(t)dty = \int_{a}^{g(x)} f(t) \, dt

where aa is a constant and g(x)g(x) is a function of xx, the derivative of yy with respect to xx is:

dydx=f(g(x))g(x)\frac{dy}{dx} = f(g(x)) \cdot g'(x)

In our case:

  • f(t)=t1+t3f(t) = \frac{t}{1 + t^3}
  • The upper limit is g(x)=3x+5g(x) = 3x + 5
  • The lower limit is constant (1)

Now, we can apply the rule:

dydx=(3x+5)1+(3x+5)3ddx(3x+5)\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{(3x + 5)}{1 + (3x + 5)^3} \cdot \frac{d}{dx} (3x + 5)

The derivative of 3x+53x + 5 is simply 3. Thus, the derivative of yy is:

dydx=3x+51+(3x+5)33\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{3x + 5}{1 + (3x + 5)^3} \cdot 3

So, the derivative of the given function is:

dydx=3(3x+5)1+(3x+5)3\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{3(3x + 5)}{1 + (3x + 5)^3}
