3 cos (4*x)
d / 3 \ --\cos (4*x)/ dx
Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Let .
The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Apply the power rule: goes to
So, the result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
The result of the chain rule is:
The answer is:
2 -12*cos (4*x)*sin(4*x)
/ 2 2 \ 48*\- cos (4*x) + 2*sin (4*x)/*cos(4*x)
/ 2 2 \ 192*\- 2*sin (4*x) + 7*cos (4*x)/*sin(4*x)
