Find dz/dy and dz/dx
Let z = ∫e^(sin(t))dt from x to y
a = x
b = y
I tried thinking about it like a chain rule but even then i'm a little unsure.
I know dz/dt = e^(sin(t)). Can you please point me in the right direction if i'm supposed to use the chain rule.

First, separate the integral into two parts, dy and dx, that can be differentiated: z(y) = ∫e^(sin(t))dt from x to y z(x) = ∫e^(sin(t)) dt from x to y Then you can use the chain rule to differentiate each part separately. For dz/dy: dz/dy = dz/dt•dt/dy = e^(sin(t))•1 = e^(sin(t)) For dz/dx: dz/dx = dz/dt•dt/dx = e^(sin(t))•(-1) = -e^(sin(t))
