I just want to check my method



(The question put that superscript x on the integral... not sure if that was intended or a mistake... anyway)

I have no idea how to apply all three rules into this question...

(Later question that was easier to complete: so that nobody uses it)

Hm, I'm getting dx/dt = f(t)

Clearly I'm doing something wrong, but I'm not quite sure what.

Because the limits and integrand both depend on t, we can't just use FTC simply like that (I'm assuming you subbed t for s in the integrand to get your dx/dt).

I had the same problem lol. I forgot about the dependence-on-the-variable problem

I'm dumb. Does du/dt = 1 when we let u=t?

Gonna revive this one temporarily



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leibniz_integral_rule#Formal_statement .





To compute these three terms, we'll need to use the various rules mentioned (FTC etc.). I'll let you have a go from here.
Back then, using the multivariable chain rule I did get the answer out successfully, but once again I'm stumped on technicality.

We let x=F(u,t), which that step I do get

But is that really x(t)? Or is it x(something else)?

Or does it forcibly become x(t) the instant we let u=t

Differentiate with respect to a
I messed that one up cause for some reason whilst I wrote partial/partial a I still tried to treat it as a polynomial and not an exponential lol

Once again please check my working
