Use logarithmic differentiation to find dy/dx if y=(cosx)sinx. write the derivative in terms of x only. show all your work.
(cos ^sin()(cos(x)ln(cos((x)sin(x)) is what i got, although i am not entirely sure if this is correct.

If , then

Differentiating both sides gives

[(cosx)^(sinx)][-sinx(tanx) + (cosx)ln(cosx)]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (cosx)^(sinx)

lny = (sinx) × ln(cosx)

(1/y)×dy/dx = (sinx)(1/cosx)(-sinx) + (cosx)ln(cosx)

(1/y)dy/dx = -sinxtanx + (cosx)ln(cosx)

dy/dx = y[-sinxtanx + (cosx)ln(cosx)]

dy/dx =

[(cosx)^(sinx)][-sinxtanx + (cosx)ln(cosx)]

x =-.20752

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752

the answer is d

for problems like this theres an app, its photomath that explains the problem and gives the answer hope i
