まとめノート

    1. 1

      Setting up yn=xmy^n = x^myn=xm and differentiating it

      Write y=xm/ny = x^{m/n}y=xm/n, raise it to the nnnth power to get yn=xmy^n = x^myn=xm, note which equation gets differentiated, and apply the chain rule to reach nyn−1dydx=mxm−1ny^{n-1}\frac{dy}{dx} = mx^{m-1}nyn−1dxdy​=mxm−1.

    2. 2

      Solving for dydx\frac{dy}{dx}dxdy​ and the exponent arithmetic

      Divide to isolate dydx\frac{dy}{dx}dxdy​, substitute y=xm/ny = x^{m/n}y=xm/n back in, and carry out the exponent algebra (m−1)−m(n−1)n=mn−1(m-1) - \frac{m(n-1)}{n} = \frac{m}{n} - 1(m−1)−nm(n−1)​=nm​−1 to land on axa−1ax^{a-1}axa−1.

    3. 3

      The case m=1m = 1m=1 and the nnnth roots

      Record that a=mna = \frac{m}{n}a=nm​ with m=1m = 1m=1 gives x1/nx^{1/n}x1/n, and differentiate one root such as x\sqrt{x}x​ or x1/3x^{1/3}x1/3 as the worked example.
