If f(x) + x2 [f(x)]3 = 10 and f(1) = 2. Find f'(1).
We will be using the concept of differentiation to solve this.
Answer: If f(x) + x2 [f(x)]3 = 10 and f(1) = 2, then f'(1) = -16/13
Let's solve this step by step.
Explanation:
Given that, f(x) + x2 [f(x)]3 = 10 and f(1) = 2
f(x) + x2[f(x)]3 = 10
Differentiate with respect to x on both sides,
f'(x) + {2x [f(x)]3 + 3x2 [f(x)]2 f'(x)} = 0
f'(x) + 2x [f(x)]3 + 3x2 [f(x)]2 f '(x) = 0
f'(x) {1 + 3x2 [f(x)]2} = -2x [f(x)]3
f'(x) = -2x [f(x)]3 / {1 + 3x2 [f(x)]2}
Substitue x = 1 and f(1) = 2 above,
f'(1) = -2 (1) [f(1)]3 / {1 + 3 (1)2 [f(1)]2}
f'(1) = -2 [2]3 / {1 + 3 [2]2}
f'(1) = -2[8] / {1 + 3[4]}
f'(1) = -16 / 13
Hence, if f(x) + x2 [f(x)]3 = 10 and f(1) = 2, then f'(1) = -16/13
