Differentiate x^x

xx=ex*ln(x)

So  d/dx (xx) = d/dx (ex*ln(x))

By chain rule, we get     d/dx (xln(x))exln(x) 

Then by product rule we get      [ln(x)+1]exln(x)

Integrate ln(x)/(x^3)


Consider the curve y=x/(x+4)^0.5. (i) Show that the derivative of the curve is given by dy/dx= (x+8)/2(x+4)^3/2 and (ii) hence find the coordinates of the intersection between the left vertical asymptote and the line tangent to the curve at the origin.


Express the following as a partial fraction: (4x^2+12x+9) / (x^2+3x+2) .


Find the tangent of the following curve, y=xe^x, at x=1 expressing it in the form y=mx+c?
