# Math Help - finding the derivative of a definite integral

1. ## finding the derivative of a definite integral

Find the derivative of the following function at x = 1

Based on the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, Part I would this be correct?

Or would it become something like

$(-1+2t)/(1+2t)$

thanks, my teacher to so horrible. I might actually be able to learn something this way.

2. $y' = \frac{1 - x + x^2}{1+x+x^2}$ by Fundamental Theorem.

To find $y'(1)$ evaluate that function on RHS at 1.

If

$y(x)=\int_0^x f(t) dt$

then the fundamental theorem tell us that:

$y'(x)=f(x)$

so:

$y'(1)=f(1)$

4. So when I take the derivative at x=1 I get:

$y'(1) = (1-(1)+1^2)/(1+1+1^2) = 1/3$?
