(\partial)/(\partial x)((xy)^{0.5})

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} ((x y)^{0.5})

\frac{0.5 y ^{\frac{1}{2}}}{x ^{\frac{1}{2}}}

Solution steps

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} ((x y)^{0.5})

Treat

y

as a constant

Apply the chain rule:

\frac{0.5}{( x y ) ^{0.5}} \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x y)

= \frac{0.5}{( x y ) ^{0.5}} \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x y)

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x y) = y

= \frac{0.5}{( x y ) ^{0.5}} y

Simplify

\frac{0.5}{( x y ) ^{\frac{1}{2}}} y : \frac{0.5 y ^{\frac{1}{2}}}{x ^{\frac{1}{2}}}

= \frac{0.5 y ^{\frac{1}{2}}}{x ^{\frac{1}{2}}}
