	Heat equation		2017-11-23
		From Max: What does du\dt=a(triangle)^2u mean. Can it be solved for t. Answered by Penny Nom.
	Differentiate ln[x(2x-4)^1/2]		2014-06-28
		From Igwe: If y=In[x(2x-4)^1/2],find dy/dx at x=3 Answered by Penny Nom.
	Differentiation rules		2012-10-23
		From Morgan: Use the derivative rules to differentiate each of the following: 1. f(x)=1/x-1 2. f(x)= sqrt(x) Answered by Penny Nom.
	Partial derivatives		2009-01-17
		From Meghan: I have a question I've been working at for a while with maxima/minima of partial derivatives. "Postal rules require that the length + girth of a package (dimensions x, y, l) cannot exceed 84 inches in order to be mailed. Find the dimensions of the rectangular package of greatest volume that can be mailed. (84 = length + girth = l + 2x + 2y)" Answered by Harley Weston.
	Implicit Derivatives		2007-07-13
		From Charles: I need help computing y' by implicit differentiation the question is: y^2 + x/y + 4x^2 - 3 Answered by Stephen La Rocque.
	Log base 2 of log base 2 of x		2007-06-27
		From alex: y = log base 2 of lag base 2 of x The slope of the tangent to the given curve at its x-intercept is..? Answered by Harley Weston.
	The third derivative		2004-10-15
		From Holly: Why would you ever take the third derivative? Answered by Harley Weston.
	Differentiation		2004-08-04
		From A parent: I am a parent trying to understand higher level of maths and would be very grateful if you could help with differentiating the following functions, identifying general rules of calculus: a) f(x)=e^2^xIn(cos(8x)) b) f(x)=secx/SQRTx^4+1 Answered by Penny Nom.
	Areas, perimeters and derivatives		2004-02-15
		From Geoff: A recent lecture in my calculus class led me to realize that the derivative of the area of a circle, with respect to the radius is equal to the circumfrence. This also holds true for the relationship between the volume of a sphere and the surface area of that sphere: why do these hold true? why is it only for circular objects? Answered by Harley Weston.
	Functions, graphs and derivatives		2003-10-05
		From Jathiyah: I wanted to know how would you tell (on a graph diplaying two funtions), which funtion is the derivative of the other? Answered by Walter Whiteley.
	Derivatives, there must be an easier way		2000-09-06
		From Brad Goorman: The direction read: Take the derivative of each expression. y = {1+[x+(x2 +x3)4]5}6 Answered by Harley Weston.
	Mathematical Induction and the Derivative		1997-03-18
		From Shuling Chong: "Obtain a formula for the nth derivative of the product of two functions, and prove the formula by induction on n." Any educated tries are appreciated. Answered by Penny Nom.
	Derivées partielle		1999-10-19
