Alright, so:

f(x) = e^g(x)

and

g(x) = t/(1+t^4) integrated from 2 to x.

by the chain rule, f'(x) = g'(x)*e^g(x), correct?

I just can't figure out what g'(x) would be.. what do you do with the limits of integration when you take the derivative of a definite integral?

In other words, where does the 2 and x go? would g'(x) just be x/(1+x^4)?

I'm not sure. I probably shouldn't have waited until the night before it was due to start doing it haha

Oh alright, I got it. g'(x) must just be x/(1+x^4), because I got the answer right. 2/17. Idryg 22:05, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
