Detail solution
  1. Apply the product rule:

    ; to find :

    1. Let .

    2. The derivative of cosine is negative sine:

    3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :

      1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

        1. Apply the power rule: goes to

        So, the result is:

      The result of the chain rule is:

    ; to find :

    1. Let .

    2. Apply the power rule: goes to

    3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :

      1. Apply the power rule: goes to

      The result of the chain rule is:

    The result is:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
     2                        
- 2*x *sin(2*x) + 2*x*cos(2*x)
$$- 2 x^{2} \sin{\left(2 x \right)} + 2 x \cos{\left(2 x \right)}$$
The second derivative [src]
  /                   2                    \
2*\-4*x*sin(2*x) - 2*x *cos(2*x) + cos(2*x)/
$$2 \left(- 2 x^{2} \cos{\left(2 x \right)} - 4 x \sin{\left(2 x \right)} + \cos{\left(2 x \right)}\right)$$
The third derivative [src]
  /                                2         \
4*\-3*sin(2*x) - 6*x*cos(2*x) + 2*x *sin(2*x)/
$$4 \left(2 x^{2} \sin{\left(2 x \right)} - 6 x \cos{\left(2 x \right)} - 3 \sin{\left(2 x \right)}\right)$$
