Given a function ψ:R→R  with ψ(θ) = θ^2 −x^2 . Find the value  of ((d^2 ψ(θ))/dx^2 )  when θ=8

Givenafunctionψ:RRwithψ(θ)=θ2x2.Findthevalueofd2ψ(θ)dx2whenθ=8

θ independent variable?

θindependentvariable?

(d/dx)ψ=2θ(d/dx)θ−2x  (d^2 /dx^2 )ψ=2((dθ/dx))^2 +2θ(d^2 θ/dx^2 )−2  i think if θ is not independent of  yiu will need to know θ(x)

sir in line 2 it should be   (d^2 ψ/dx^2 ) = 2((dθ/dx))^2 +2θ (d^2 θ/dx^2 ) −2 ?

sirinline2itshouldbed2ψdx2=2(dθdx)2+2θd2θdx22?

But in the question θ is independent of x  ψ(θ)=θ^2 −x^2         (And ψ(θ)=θ^2 −x^2       Where −x^2  is  constant)  ψ′(θ)=2θ(dθ/dx)−2x  ψ′′(θ)=2(dθ/dx)+2θ(d^2 θ/dx^2 )−2       (dθ/dx)=0  ψ′′(θ)=−2

Butinthequestionθisindependentofxψ(θ)=θ2x2(Andψ(θ)=θ2x2Wherex2isconstant)ψ(θ)=2θdθdx2xψ(θ)=2dθdx+2θd2θdx22dθdx=0ψ(θ)=2

It was already replied that θ is not  independent variable.

Itwasalreadyrepliedthatθisnotindependentvariable.
