Find the derivative of evaluated at .
STEP 1
Assumptions
1. The given function is .
2. We need to find the derivative of with respect to , denoted as .
3. After finding the derivative, we will evaluate at .
STEP 2
To find the derivative of with respect to , we will use the power rule for differentiation. The power rule states that if , then .
STEP 3
The term can be differentiated using the power rule. Applying the power rule to this term gives us:
STEP 4
The term can be rewritten as to make it easier to differentiate using the power rule.
STEP 5
Now, apply the power rule to :
STEP 6
Simplify the derivative of the second term:
STEP 7
Combine the derivatives of both terms to get the derivative of :
STEP 8
Now, we need to evaluate at . Substitute into the derivative.
STEP 9
Simplify the expression by evaluating the square root of 1 and the multiplication:
STEP 10
Add the two numbers to find the value of the derivative at :
The derivative of with respect to when is 9.
The correct answer is:
9
