Title: Solve this rudimentary calculus problem for lutz:
Post by: [REDACTED] on November 15, 2008, 09:19:19 AM
If y=x2+x, then the derivative of y with respect to (1/1-x) is?

Felt, I'm pretty sure there are only a few other people here who know calculus.


and I bet JMV will get it.

y=det*y/clucky
clucky= n = det
y=pqqu
rewritten:
pqqu=ny/n
pqqu=pqqu

Let's put the verbal expression into a mathematical expression:
"differentiate y in respect to 1/(1-x)"
dy/d(1/(1-x))
Remember:
dy/du/[dx/du]=dy/dx; where u is a nonsensical expression

I KNOW I'M CONFUSED
how is it possible to differentiate in respect to a expression, as opposed to a variable

i'm not sure what that even means
ask your teacher for clarification
