Detailed solution to Problem Set 10 Exercise 11

Question:
Find the differential of 10√(n + 5).
Solutions:
d(10√(n + 5)) = 10 d(√(n + 5)) = 10(√(n + 5) d(n + 5)/(2(n + 5))) = 5√(n + 5) dn/(n + 5), which you can write as 5 dn/√(n + 5) or 5(n + 5)−½ dn if you want.
Or d(10(n + 5)½) = 10 d((n + 5)½) = 10(½ (n + 5)½−1 d(n + 5)) = 5(n + 5)−½ dn, which you can write as 5 dn/√(n + 5) or 5√(n + 5) dn/(n + 5) if you want.
