Differentiate term by term:
Rewrite the function to be differentiated:
Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
The result of the chain rule is:
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 is:
The answer is:
4 x + sec(x)*tan(x)
3 2 / 2 \ 4*x + tan (x)*sec(x) + \1 + tan (x)/*sec(x)
2 3 / 2 \ 12*x + tan (x)*sec(x) + 5*\1 + tan (x)/*sec(x)*tan(x)
