Detail solution
  1. Apply the product rule:

    ; to find :

    1. The derivative of cosine is negative sine:

    ; to find :

    1. Let .

    2. Apply the power rule: goes to

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

      1. The derivative of sine is cosine:

      The result of the chain rule is:

    The result is:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
     3           2          
- sin (x) + 2*cos (x)*sin(x)
$$- \sin^{3}{\left(x \right)} + 2 \sin{\left(x \right)} \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}$$
The second derivative [src]
 /       2           2   \       
-\- 2*cos (x) + 7*sin (x)/*cos(x)
$$- \left(7 \sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} - 2 \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}\right) \cos{\left(x \right)}$$
The third derivative [src]
/        2           2   \       
\- 20*cos (x) + 7*sin (x)/*sin(x)
$$\left(7 \sin^{2}{\left(x \right)} - 20 \cos^{2}{\left(x \right)}\right) \sin{\left(x \right)}$$
