Final Answer: f(1)=39

Steps

Step 1 :Suppose u and v are functions of x, and f(x)=ln(uv)+u2. If u(1)=2,v(1)=7,u(1)=8, and v(1)=21, then we are asked to find f(1).

Step 2 :The derivative of f(x) can be found using the chain rule and the product rule. The derivative of ln(uv) with respect to x is uv+uvuv by the chain rule and the product rule. The derivative of u2 with respect to x is 2uu by the chain rule. So the derivative of f(x) is uv+uvuv+2uu.

Step 3 :Substitute the given values of u(1), v(1), u(1), and v(1) into the derivative of f(x) to find f(1).

Step 4 :Final Answer: f(1)=39
