EXERCISE 12.2

1. Find the derivative of $x^{2}-2$ at $x=10$.

Show Answer

Answer :

Let $f(x)=x^{2} - 2$. Accordingly,

$ \begin{aligned} f^{\prime}(10) & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{f(10+h)-f(10)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{[(10+h)^{2}-2]-(10^{2}-2)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{10^{2}+2 \cdot 10 \cdot h+h^{2}-2-10^{2}+2}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{20 h+h^{2}}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0}(20+h)=(20+0)=20 \end{aligned} $

Thus, the derivative of $x^{2} - 2$ at $x=10$ is 20 .

2. Find the derivative of $x$ at $x=1$.

Show Answer

Answer :

Letf $(x)=x$. Accordingly,

$ \begin{aligned} f^{\prime}(1) & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{f(1+h)-f(1)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{(1+h)-1}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{h}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0}(1) \\ & =1 \end{aligned} $

Thus, the derivative of $x$ at $x=1$ is 1 .

3. Find the derivative of $99 x$ at $x=100$.

Show Answer

Answer :

Let $f(x)=99 x$. Accordingly,

$ \begin{aligned} f^{\prime}(100) & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{f(100+h)-f(100)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{99(100+h)-99(100)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{99 \times 100+99 h-99 \times 100}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{99 h}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0}(99)=99 \end{aligned} $

Thus, the derivative of $99 x$ at $x=100$ is 99 .

4. Find the derivative of the following functions from first principle.

(i) $x^{3}-27$

(ii) $(x-1)(x-2)$

(iii) $\dfrac{1}{x^{2}}$

(iv) $\dfrac{x+1}{x-1}$

Show Answer

Answer :

(i) Let $f(x)=x^{3} - 27$. Accordingly, from the first principle,

$ \begin{aligned} f^{\prime}(x) & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{[(x+h)^{3}-27]-(x^{3}-27)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{x^{3}+h^{3}+3 x^{2} h+3 x h^{2}-x^{3}}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{h^{3}+3 x^{2} h+3 x h^{2}}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0}(h^{2}+3 x^{2}+3 x h) \\ & =0+3 x^{2}+0=3 x^{2} \end{aligned} $

(ii) Let $f(x)=(x$- 1$)(x$ - 2). Accordingly, from the first principle,

$ \begin{aligned} & f^{\prime}(x)=\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{(x+h-1)(x+h-2)-(x-1)(x-2)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{(x^{2}+h x-2 x+h x+h^{2}-2 h-x-h+2)-(x^{2}-2 x-x+2)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{(h x+h x+h^{2}-2 h-h)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{2 h x+h^{2}-3 h}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0}(2 x+h-3) \\ & =(2 x+0-3) \\ & =2 x-3 \\ \end{aligned} $

(iii) Let $f(x)=\frac{1}{x^2}$ then,

$f^{\prime}(x)=\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$

$=\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{(x+h)^{2}}-\dfrac{1}{x^{2}}}{h} $

$=\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{1}{h}[\dfrac{x^{2}-(x+h)^{2}}{x^{2}(x+h)^{2}}] $

$=\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{1}{h}[\dfrac{x^{2}-x^{2}-h^{2}-2 h x}{x^{2}(x+h)^{2}}] $

$=\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{1}{h}[\dfrac{-h^{2}-2 h x}{x^{2}(x+h)^{2}}] $

$=\lim _{h \to 0}[\dfrac{-h-2 x}{x^{2}(x+h)^{2}}] $

$=\dfrac{0-2 x}{x^{2}(x+0)^{2}}=\dfrac{-2}{x^{3}} $

(iv) Let $f(x)=\frac{x+1}{x-1}$.

$ \begin{aligned} & f^{\prime}(x)=\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{(\dfrac{x+h+1}{x+h-1}-\dfrac{x+1}{x-1})}{h} \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{1}{h}[\dfrac{(x-1)(x+h+1)-(x+1)(x+h-1)}{(x-1)(x+h-1)}] \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{1}{h}[\dfrac{(x^{2}+h x+x-x-h-1)-(x^{2}+h x-x+x+h-1)}{(x-1)(x+h-1)}] \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0} \dfrac{1}{h}[\dfrac{-2 h}{(x-1)(x+h-1)}] \\ & =\lim _{h \to 0}[\dfrac{-2}{(x-1)(x+h-1)}] \\ & =\dfrac{-2}{(x-1)(x-1)}=\dfrac{-2}{(x-1)^{2}} \end{aligned} $

5. For the function

$ f(x)=\dfrac{x^{100}}{100}+\dfrac{x^{99}}{99}+\ldots+\dfrac{x^{2}}{2}+x+1 . $

Prove that $f^{\prime}(1)=100 f^{\prime}(0)$.

Show Answer

Answer :

The given function is $f(x)=\dfrac{x^{100}}{100}+\dfrac{x^{99}}{99}+\ldots+\dfrac{x^{2}}{2}+x+1$

$\dfrac{d}{d x} f(x)=\dfrac{d}{d x}[\dfrac{x^{100}}{100}+\dfrac{x^{99}}{99}+\ldots+\dfrac{x^{2}}{2}+x+1]$

$\dfrac{d}{d x} f(x)=\dfrac{d}{d x}(\dfrac{x^{100}}{100})+\dfrac{d}{d x}(\dfrac{x^{99}}{99})+\ldots+\dfrac{d}{d x}(\dfrac{x^{2}}{2})+\dfrac{d}{d x}(x)+\dfrac{d}{d x}(1)$

On using theorem $\dfrac{d}{d x}(x^{n})=n x^{n-1}$, we obtain

$\dfrac{d}{d x} f(x)=\dfrac{100 x^{99}}{100}+\dfrac{99 x^{98}}{99}+\ldots+\dfrac{2 x}{2}+1+0$

$ =x^{99}+x^{98}+\ldots+x+1 $

$\therefore f^{\prime}(x)=x^{99}+x^{98}+\ldots+x+1$

At $x=0$,

$f^{\prime}(0)=1$

At $x=1$,

$f^{\prime}(1)=1^{99}+1^{98}+\ldots+1+1=[1+1+\ldots+1+1] _{\text{to terms }}=1 \times 100=100$

Thus, $f^{\prime}(1)=100 \times f^{\prime}(0)$

6. Find the derivative of $x^{n}+a x^{n-1}+a^{2} x^{n-2}+\ldots+a^{n-1} x+a^{n}$ for some fixed real number $a$.

Show Answer

Answer :

Let $f(x)=x^{n}+a x^{n-1}+a^{2} x^{n-2}+\ldots+a^{n-1} x+a^{n}$

$\therefore f^{\prime}(x)=\dfrac{d}{d x}(x^{n}+a x^{n-1}+a^{2} x^{n-2}+\ldots+a^{n-1} x+a^{n})$

$=\dfrac{d}{d x}(x^{\prime \prime})+a \dfrac{d}{d x}(x^{n-1})+a^{2} \dfrac{d}{d x}(x^{n-2})+\ldots+a^{n-1} \dfrac{d}{d x}(x)+a^{n} \dfrac{d}{d x}(1)$

On using theorem $\dfrac{d}{d x} x^{n}=n x^{n-1}$, we obtain

$ \begin{aligned} f^{\prime}(x) & =n x^{n-1}+a(n-1) x^{n-2}+a^{2}(n-2) x^{n-3}+\ldots+a^{n-1}+a^{n}(0) \\ & =n x^{n-1}+a(n-1) x^{n-2}+a^{2}(n-2) x^{n-3}+\ldots+a^{n-1} \end{aligned} $

7. For some constants $a$ and $b$, find the derivative of

(i) $(x-a)(x-b)$

(ii) $(a x^{2}+b)^{2}$

(iii) $\dfrac{x-a}{x-b}$

Show Answer

Answer :

(i) Let $f(x)=(x$ - a) $(x$ - $b)$

$ \begin{aligned} \Rightarrow f(x) & =x^{2}-(a+b) x+a b \\ \therefore f^{\prime}(x) & =\dfrac{d}{d x}(x^{2}-(a+b) x+a b) \\ & =\dfrac{d}{d x}(x^{2})-(a+b) \dfrac{d}{d x}(x)+\dfrac{d}{d x}(a b) \end{aligned} $

On using theorem $\dfrac{d}{d x}(x^{n})=n x^{n-1}$, we obtain

$f^{\prime}(x)=2 x-(a+b)+0=2 x-a-b$

(ii) Let $f(x)=(a x^{2}+b)^{2}$

$\Rightarrow f(x)=a^{2} x^{4}+2 a b x^{2}+b^{2}$

$\therefore f^{\prime}(x)=\dfrac{d}{d x}(a^{2} x^{4}+2 a b x^{2}+b^{2})=a^{2} \dfrac{d}{d x}(x^{4})+2 a b \dfrac{d}{d x}(x^{2})+\dfrac{d}{d x}(b^{2})$

On using theorem $\dfrac{d}{d x} x^{n}=n x^{n-1}$, we obtain

$ \begin{aligned} f^{\prime}(x) & =a^{2}(4 x^{3})+2 a b(2 x)+b^{2}(0) \\ & =4 a^{2} x^{3}+4 a b x \\ & =4 a x(a x^{2}+b) \end{aligned} $

(iii)

Let $f(x)=\dfrac{(x-a)}{(x-b)}$

$\Rightarrow f^{\prime}(x)=\dfrac{d}{d x}(\dfrac{x-a}{x-b})$

By quotient rule,

$ \begin{aligned} f^{\prime}(x) & =\dfrac{(x-b) \dfrac{d}{d x}(x-a)-(x-a) \dfrac{d}{d x}(x-b)}{(x-b)^{2}} \\ & =\dfrac{(x-b)(1)-(x-a)(1)}{(x-b)^{2}} \\ & =\dfrac{x-b-x+a}{(x-b)^{2}} \\ & =\dfrac{a-b}{(x-b)^{2}} \end{aligned} $

8. Find the derivative of $\dfrac{x^{n}-a^{n}}{x-a}$ for some constant $a$.

Show Answer

Answer :

Let $f(x)=\dfrac{x^{n}-a^{n}}{x-a}$

$\Rightarrow f^{\prime}(x)=\dfrac{d}{d x}(\dfrac{x^{n}-a^{n}}{x-a})$

By quotient rule,

$ \begin{aligned} f^{\prime}(x) & =\dfrac{(x-a) \dfrac{d}{d x}(x^{n}-a^{n})-(x^{n}-a^{n}) \dfrac{d}{d x}(x-a)}{(x-a)^{2}} \\ & =\dfrac{(x-a)(n x^{n-1}-0)-(x^{n}-a^{n})}{(x-a)^{2}} \\ & =\dfrac{n x^{n}-a n x^{n-1}-x^{n}+a^{n}}{(x-a)^{2}} \end{aligned} $

$ \begin{aligned} f^{\prime}(x) & =\dfrac{d}{d x}(2 x-\dfrac{3}{4}) \\ & =2 \dfrac{d}{d x}(x)-\dfrac{d}{d x}(\dfrac{3}{4}) \\ & =2-0 \\ & =2 \end{aligned} $

(iii) Let $f(x)=x^{-3}(5+3 x)$

By Leibnitz product rule,

(iv) Let $f(x)=x^{5}(3-6 x^{-9})$

By Leibnitz product rule,

$ \begin{aligned} f^{\prime}(x) & =x^{5} \dfrac{d}{d x}(3-6 x^{-9})+(3-6 x^{-9}) \dfrac{d}{d x}(x^{5}) \\ & =x^{5}\{0-6(-9) x^{-9-1}\}+(3-6 x^{-9})(5 x^{4}) \\ & =x^{5}(54 x^{-10})+15 x^{4}-30 x^{-5} \\ & =54 x^{-5}+15 x^{4}-30 x^{-5} \\ & =24 x^{-5}+15 x^{4} \\ & =15 x^{4}+\dfrac{24}{x^{5}} \end{aligned} $

(v) Let $f(x)=x^{-4}(3-4 x^{-5})$

By Leibnitz product rule,

$ \begin{aligned} & f^{\prime}(x)=x^{-4} \dfrac{d}{d x}(3-4 x^{-5})+(3-4 x^{-5}) \dfrac{d}{d x}(x^{-4}) \\ & =x^{-4}\{0-4(-5) x^{-5-1}\}+(3-4 x^{-5})(-4) x^{-4-1} \\ & =x^{-4}(20 x^{-6})+(3-4 x^{-5})(-4 x^{-5}) \\ & =20 x^{-10}-12 x^{-5}+16 x^{-10} \\ & =36 x^{-10}-12 x^{-5} \\ & =-\dfrac{12}{x^{5}}+\dfrac{36}{x^{10}} \end{aligned} $

(vi) Let $f(x)=\dfrac{2}{x+1}-\dfrac{x^{2}}{3 x-1}$

$f^{\prime}(x)=\dfrac{d}{d x}(\dfrac{2}{x+1})-\dfrac{d}{d x}(\dfrac{x^{2}}{3 x-1})$

By quotient rule,
