Things needed
to do the problem.
(d/dx)[arctan u] =
[u' / (1
+ u^2)]
Let u = x,
then u ' = 1
therefore:
(d/dx)[arctan u] =
[1 / (1 + x^2)]
More things
needed to do the problem.
(d/dx)[Ln x] =
(1/x)

Simplify
the problem, use rules about Natural Logs
Also
factor out the constant in front of the Ln..
|
y = (1/2)*(1/2)*[(Ln(x+1)
- Ln(x-1)] + [(1/2) arctan x]
|
|
|
Simplify
the problem by combining (1/2)*(1/2). |
y = (1/4)*[(Ln(x+1)
- Ln(x-1)] + [(1/2) arctan x] |
|
|
Now
diff of eqn:
|
y
' = (1/4)*[1/(x+1)
- 1/(x-1)]
+ [(1/2) * (1 /
(1 + x^2))]
|
|
|
Get
a common denominator so terms can be combined |
|
(x^2
+ 1) |
|
Common
denominator 1st part
[(1/(x+1))
* (x-1)] = [(x-1) / (x^2-1)]
|
|
Common
denominator 2nd part
[(1/(x-1))
* (x+1)] = [(x+1) / (x^2-1)]
|
|
Set
back into equation.
|
y
' = (1/4)*[((x-1)/(x^2-1))
- ((x+1)/(x^2-1))] + [(1/2)*(1
/ (x^2
+ 1))]
|
Then
combine and simplify
(1/4)*[-2/(x^2-1))]
+ [(1/2)*(1 / (x^2
+ 1))] |
Simplify
the problem more.
(-1/2)*[(1/(x^2+1))]
+ [(1/2)*(1 / (x^2
+ 1))] |
|
Factor
out (-1/2) to simplify |
(-1/2)*[(1/(x^2-1))
+ (1 / (x^2
+ 1))] |
|
|
Get
a common denominator so terms can be combined |
|
(x^4
- 1)
|
|
Get
a common denominator of 1st part
(1/(x^2-1)*[
(x^2+1)/(x^2+1)]
= (x^2+1)/
(x^4
- 1)
|
|
Get
a common denominator of 2nd part
(1 / (x^2
+ 1))*[ (x^2-1)/(x^2-1)]
= (x^2-1)/(x^4
- 1) |
(-1/2)*[((x^2+1)/
(x^4
- 1)) + ((x^2-1)/(x^4
- 1))]
(-1/2)*[((x^2+1)*(x^2-1))/
(x^4
- 1)]
(-1/2)*[(-2)/ (x^4
- 1)]
|
|
Final
solution:
y '
(x) = [1/(x^4
- 1)] |
