उत्तर
Let `f(x) = xn + axn - 1 + a2xn - 2 + ... + an - 1 + an
∴ f(x) = `d/(dx) (x^n + ax^(n - 1) + a^2 x^(n - 2) + ... + a^(n - 1) + a^n)`
= `d/(dx) (x^n) + ad/(dx)(x^(n - 1)) + a^2 d/(dx)(x^(n - 2)) + ... + a^(n - 1)d/(dx)(x) + a^n d/(dx) (1)`
On using theorem `d/(dx)x^n = nx^(n - 1)` we obtain
`f'("x") = "nx"^("n" - 1) + "a". ("n" - 1)"x"^("n" - 2) + "a"^2 . ("n" - 2)"x"^("n" - 3) + ...... + "a"^("n" - 1). 1`
= `"nx"^("n" - 1) + ("n" - 1)"ax"^("n" - 2) + ("n" - 2) "a"^2"x"^("n" - 3) + ....... + "a"^("n" - 1)`
