Answer

$$ f(x)=\int_{1}^{\sqrt{x}} \frac{e^{s}}{s} d s $$ $\Rightarrow $ $$ f^{\prime}(x)=\frac{e^{\sqrt{x}}}{2 x} $$

Work Step by Step

$$ f(x)=\int_{1}^{\sqrt{x}} \frac{e^{s}}{s} d s $$ $\Rightarrow $ $$ \begin{aligned} f^{\prime}(x)&=\frac{d}{d x} (f(x))\\ &=\frac{d}{d x} \int_{1}^{\sqrt{x}} \frac{e^{s}}{s} d s \\ & \quad\quad\text { Let } u=\sqrt{x} . \text { Then } \frac{du}{dx} =\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{x}}\\ &=\frac{d}{d u} \left[ \int_{1}^{u} \frac{e^{s}}{s} d s \right] \frac{du}{dx} \quad\quad\text { (by the Chain Rule) }\\ &=\frac{e^{u}}{u}\frac{du}{dx} \quad\quad\quad\quad \quad\quad \text { (by FTC1)} \\ &=\frac{e^{\sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x}} \frac{1}{2 \sqrt{x}} \\ &=\frac{e^{\sqrt{x}}}{2 x} \end{aligned} $$
