2. This formula can be verified by using the idea of

Let y = uv …… 1
Differentiate each of the following function with respect From the idea of limit,

to x by using the formula dy = nu n – 1 du . y + dy = (u + du)(v + dv)
dx dx y + dy = uv + udv + vdu + dudv …… 2
(a) y = 4 (b) y = √1 – 5x
2x – 1 Substitute 1 into 2,
uv + dy = uv + udv + vdu + dudv
Solution dy = udv + vdu + dudv
(a) y = 4
2x – 1 Divide each term with dx,
–1
y = 4(2x – 1) dy = u dv + v du + dudv
dy = –1[4(2x – 1) –1 – 1 ] 3 d (2x – 1) dx dx dx dx
