-4/x^4 - 5*sin(x)
Detail solution
  1. Differentiate term by term:

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

      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:

      So, the result is:

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

      1. The derivative of sine is cosine:

      So, the result is:

    The result is:


The answer is:
