Question
Find the rate of change of demand (x) of a commodity with respect to its price (y) if y = 25 + 30x – x2.

Solution
y = 25 + 30x – x2.
Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get
`"dy"/"dx" = "d"/"dx" (25 + 30"x" - "x"^2) = 0 + 30 - 2"x"`
∴ `"dy"/"dx" = 30 - 2"x"`
Now, by the derivative of an inverse function, the rate of change of demand (x) w.r.t. price(y) is
`"dx"/"dy" = 1/(("dy"/"dx"))`, where `"dy"/"dx" ne 0`.
i.e. `"dx"/"dy" = 1/(30 - 2"x")`

y = (6x4 – 5x3 + 2x + 3)6, find `("d"y)/("d"x)`
Solution: Given,
y = (6x4 – 5x3 + 2x + 3)6
Let u = `[6x^4 - 5x^3 + square + 3]`
∴ y = `"u"^square`
∴ `("d"y)/"du"` = 6u6–1
∴ `("d"y)/"du"` = 6( )5
and `"du"/("d"x) = 24x^3 - 15(square) + 2`
By chain rule,
`("d"y)/("d"x) = ("d"y)/square xx square/("d"x)`
∴ `("d"y)/("d"x) = 6(6x^4 - 5x^3 + 2x + 3)^square xx (24x^3 - 15x^2 + square)`
