Just a n th n^\text{th} term

Calculus Level 3

What is the 1 9 th 19^\text{th} derivative of x 1 e x \dfrac{x-1}{e^x} with respect to x x ?

( x 21 ) e x (x-21)e^{-x} ( 19 x ) e x (19-x)e^{-x} ( 18 x ) e x (18-x)e^{-x} ( 20 x ) e x (20-x)e^{-x}

Option C

y = ( x 1 ) . e x y = (x-1).e^{-x}

d y d x = e x ( x 1 ) . e x \frac{dy}{dx} = e^{-x} - (x-1).e^{-x}

d y d x = e x ( 1 x 1 ) \frac{dy}{dx} = e^{-x} ( 1 -x -1)

d y d x = e x ( 2 x ) \frac{dy}{dx} = e^{-x}(2 -x) Second derivatives will be

d y 2 d x 2 = e x ( x 3 ) \frac{dy^{2}}{dx^{2} } = e^{-x} (x-3)

1st derivatives is : e x ( 2 x ) e^{-x}( 2 -x)

2nd derivatives is e x ( x 3 ) e^{-x}(x- 3)

3rd derivatives will be e x ( 4 x ) e^{-x}(4-x)

In each derivatives constant is increased by 1

If its odd integer then we see ( C x ) (C - x) where C C = constant and if its even then ( x C ) (x - C) So 19th derivative will be e x ( 19 + 1 x ) e^{-x}(19+1 - x)

= > e x ( 20 x ) => e^{-x}(20-x)
