Find the derivative of f(x)=x^2log(2x)

Use the product rule (f'(x)=u'v+uv')

Let u=x2    =>    u'=2x

Let v=log(2x)  =>   v'=2/(2x)  =>    v'=1/x

Therefore f'(x)=2xlog(2x)+x2/x

f'(x)=2xlog(2x)+x

What is the equation of the tangent to the curve y=x^3+3x^2+2 when x=2


When Integrating by parts, how do you know which part to make "u" and "dv/dx"?


A curve with equation y = f(x) passes through the point (4,25). Given that f'(x) = (3/8)*x^2 - 10x^(-1/2) + 1, find f(x).


I know how to integrate, but I still never see any real world example of it, so it is difficult to understand. Why is it useful?
