Derivative of integral, which way?

$begingroup$


I know ${Largeint} _{x}^{sqrt x} dt$



can be written as $sqrt{x} - x$



but what is the derivative of ${Largeint} _{x}^{sqrt x} dt$?



is it 1 or derivative of $sqrt{x} - x$?

          Second answer: derivative of $sqrt{x}-x$ which is $-1+frac{1}{2sqrt{x}}$

            $begingroup$

            It depends on with respect to which variable you're differentiating. If you're differentiating with respect to the variable $x$, then the answer is going to be $frac{1}{2sqrt{x}}-1$:



            $$
            frac{d}{dx}left(int_{x}^{sqrt x},dtright)=
            frac{d}{dx}left(sqrt{x}-xright)=
            frac{1}{2sqrt{x}}-1.
            $$



            If you're differentiating with respect to the variable $t$, then you would get $0$ because $sqrt{x}-x$ is a constant (it's like $sqrt{4}-4$ which is just a number) and the derivative of a constant, as you probably know, is $0$:



            $$
            frac{d}{dt}left(int_{x}^{sqrt x},dtright)=
            frac{d}{dt}left(sqrt{x}-xright)=
            0.
            $$

              What is your $t$ that you are taking a derivative of? Note the variable $t$ in the integral $int_{x}^{sqrt{x}} dt$ is just a "dummy" variable as the indication of what is to be integrated, so it doesn't have any relevance outside of the integral, and with it not showing in the final result. As such, you will always get a result of $0$ for any such derivative, not just this particular example. If I'm missing something simple & obvious, I apologize and would appreciate it if you could explain. Thanks.

              It doesn't matter whether there is a $t$ in the expression or not. You still can differentiate with respect to anything you want. I hope I'm not doing anything wrong, am I?

              $begingroup$
              In that case, why not also differentiate wrt $a$, $b$, $c$, $d$, ..., with all being as valid as using $t$? You are correct $t$ doesn't need to be in the expression, but the variable should have a particular meaning. In this case, as $t$ is not defined as being anything specific, then you need to define what you mean by $t$ to make differentiating wrt to it have any meaning.

              Well, in the OP's example there are two variables $x$ and $t$. In my answer, I show that you get different answers depending on with respect to which of the two variables you're differentiating. That's really all there is to it. I don't know why it rubs you the wrong way.

Also, I will repeat again, what is $t$ supposed to be outside of the integral, as you can't reasonably differentiate wrt a variable if it has no meaning!

            The generalization of the fundamental theorem of calculus says that:



            ($int_{g(x)}^{h(x)} f(t) dt))'= f(h(x))*h'(x)-f(g(x))*g'(x)$



            (This is because of the derivative chain rule).
            It's pretty easy to go on from here.
            Good luck.

                      In that case, why not also differentiate wrt $a$, $b$, $c$, $d$, ..., with all being as valid as using $t$? You are correct $t$ doesn't need to be in the expression, but the variable should have a particular meaning. In this case, as $t$ is not defined as being anything specific, then you need to define what you mean by $t$ to make differentiating wrt to it have any meaning.

                      Well, in the OP's example there are two variables $x$ and $t$. In my answer, I show that you get different answers depending on with respect to which of the two variables you're differentiating. That's really all there is to it. I don't know why it rubs you the wrong way.

                      This will be my final comment, so anything we still don't agree on we'll just have to agree to disagree. Your last sentence says "If the expression under the integral sign had a $t$ in it, then there would probably be a $t$ in the answer". This is not correct. A simple example is that $int_{x}^{sqrt{x}} tdt = frac{x - x^2}{2}$. My point is that anything with $t$ would be integrated, so there will never be any $t$ in the final answer. Also, I will repeat again, what is $t$ supposed to be outside of the integral, as you can't reasonably differentiate wrt a variable if it has no meaning!

                    It depends on with respect to which variable you're differentiating. If you're differentiating with respect to the variable $x$, then the answer is going to be $frac{1}{2sqrt{x}}-1$:



                    $$
                    frac{d}{dx}left(int_{x}^{sqrt x},dtright)=
                    frac{d}{dx}left(sqrt{x}-xright)=
                    frac{1}{2sqrt{x}}-1.
                    $$



                    If you're differentiating with respect to the variable $t$, then you would get $0$ because $sqrt{x}-x$ is a constant (it's like $sqrt{4}-4$ which is just a number) and the derivative of a constant, as you probably know, is $0$:



                    $$
                    frac{d}{dt}left(int_{x}^{sqrt x},dtright)=
                    frac{d}{dt}left(sqrt{x}-xright)=
                    0.
                    $$

                      What is your $t$ that you are taking a derivative of? Note the variable $t$ in the integral $int_{x}^{sqrt{x}} dt$ is just a "dummy" variable as the indication of what is to be integrated, so it doesn't have any relevance outside of the integral, and with it not showing in the final result. As such, you will always get a result of $0$ for any such derivative, not just this particular example. If I'm missing something simple & obvious, I apologize and would appreciate it if you could explain. Thanks.

                    The generalization of the fundamental theorem of calculus says that:



                    ($int_{g(x)}^{h(x)} f(t) dt))'= f(h(x))*h'(x)-f(g(x))*g'(x)$



                    (This is because of the derivative chain rule).
                    It's pretty easy to go on from here.
                    Good luck.

                      I believe you forgot to add an indication you are taking the derivative of the integral, not just evaluating the integral.

                    La berlina muro ĉe Bethaniendamm, 1986 La berlina muro aŭ simple la muro [1] , nomita ankaŭ "kontraŭfaŝisma remparo" en propaganda lingvo de la iama Germana Demokratia Respubliko, estis parto de la interngermana limo, kiu dividis de la 13-a de aŭgusto 1961 ĝis la 9-a de novembro 1989 okcidentan Berlinon de la orienta parto de la urbo kaj de la ĉirkaŭa tereno de la GDR. Ĝi estis unu el la plej famaj simboloj de la malvarma milito kaj de la disdivido de Germanio. Pli ol simpla muro, la berlina muro estis fakte tuta defendokonstruaĵo kun du muroj, ena malplena strio, rondirvojo, gardturoj kaj alarmsistemoj. Dum la provo transiri la severe garditan limon al okcidenta Berlino multaj homoj estis mortigitaj. La preciza nombro de viktimoj estas pridisputita kaj ne certa; la nombroj anoncataj varias inter 86 kaj 238 mortintoj. La malplifortiĝo de Sovetunio kaj la politiko de liberigo gvidita de Miĥail Gorbaĉov ebligis al la orientgermanoj faligi la 9-an de novembro 1989 l
