Q 2) Find (each sub question for 3 marks) [21]
𝑑𝑥
i. . y = 4x3 + 3x2 – 2x + 25
𝑑𝑦
= 12𝑥 2 + 6𝑥 − 2
𝑑𝑥
ii. y = log (4x2 + 3x -1)
𝑑𝑦 8𝑥+3
=
𝑑𝑥 (4𝑥 2 +3𝑥 −1)

∴ 𝑦 = (3𝑥 2 + 8𝑥 − 7)3
𝑑𝑦 5 5 𝑑
= (3𝑥 2 + 8𝑥 − 7)3−1 × (3𝑥 2 + 8𝑥 − 7)
𝑑𝑥 3 𝑑𝑥
𝑑𝑦 5 2
∴ = (3𝑥 2 + 8𝑥 − 7)3 (6𝑥 + 8)

iv. y = (3+ x)x
Being function raised to function need to take logs
∴ log 𝑦 = 𝑥 log(3 + 𝑥 )
Using multiplication rule
1 𝑑𝑦 1
= 𝑥. . (1 + 0) + log(3 + 𝑥 )
𝑦 𝑑𝑥 3+𝑥
𝑑𝑦 𝑥
∴ = (3 + 𝑥 )𝑥 . [ + log(3 + 𝑥 )]
𝑑𝑥 3+𝑥
v. y = (𝑥 2 + 3𝑥 )11
𝑑𝑦
= 11(𝑥 2 + 3𝑥 )10 . (2𝑥 + 3)
𝑑𝑥

∴ = √ . ( − − )
𝑑𝑥 (3𝑥 + 1)3 (5𝑥 − 2) 2𝑥 + 3 2(3𝑥 + 1) 2(5𝑥 − 2)
vii. 𝑥 𝑦 = 𝑦 𝑥
Being function raised to function we take logs
∴ 𝑦 log 𝑥 = 𝑥 log 𝑦
Differentiating with respect to x

𝑑𝑦 𝑥 𝑦
(log 𝑥 − ) = (log 𝑦 − )
𝑑𝑥 𝑦 𝑥
𝑑𝑦 𝑦 log 𝑥 − 𝑥 𝑥 log 𝑦 − 𝑦
∴ ( )=
𝑑𝑥 𝑦 𝑥
𝑑𝑦 𝑦(𝑥 log 𝑦 − 𝑦)
∴ =
𝑑𝑥 𝑥 (𝑦 log 𝑥 − 𝑥 )

3𝑥 + 7
Q2) 𝑦 =
2𝑥 2 + 5
Using division rule
𝑑𝑦 ((2𝑥 2 + 5)(3) − (3𝑥 + 7)(4𝑥))
=
𝑑𝑥 (2𝑥 2 + 5)2
Solving & then taking reciprocal we get
𝑑𝑥 (2𝑥 2 +5 )2
=
𝑑𝑦 (−6𝑥 2 −28𝑥 + 15)
Q 3) Find the rate of change of demand (x) of a commodity

with respect to its price (y) if 𝑦 = [3]
𝑥 2 +1
𝑥 4 −𝑦 4
Q 4) If = 𝑘, where k is a constant,
𝑥 4 +𝑦 4
dy y
then show that dx = x {HOTS} [3]

𝑥 4 −𝑦 4
Q 4) If = 𝑘, where k is a constant,
𝑥 4 +𝑦 4
dy y
then show that dx = x .
𝑥 4 − 𝑦4
=𝑘
𝑥 4 + 𝑦4
∴ 𝑥 4 − 𝑦 4 = 𝑘 (𝑥 4 + 𝑦 4 )
∴ 𝑥 4 − 𝑦 4 = 𝑘𝑥 4 + 𝑘𝑦 4
∴ 𝑥 4 − 𝑘𝑥 4 = 𝑦 4 + 𝑘𝑦 4
∴ 𝑥 4 (1 − 𝑘) = 𝑦 4 (1 + 𝑘)
𝑥4 1 + 𝑘
∴ 4=
𝑦 1−𝑘
𝑥 4 1+𝑘
∴( ) =
