$$\frac{d}{d x} \sin{\left(4 x - 1 \right)}$$
Detail solution
  1. Let .

  2. The derivative of sine is cosine:

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

    1. Differentiate term by term:

      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:

      2. The derivative of the constant is zero.

      The result is:

    The result of the chain rule is:

  4. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
4*cos(4*x - 1)
$$4 \cos{\left(4 x - 1 \right)}$$
The second derivative [src]
-16*sin(-1 + 4*x)
$$- 16 \sin{\left(4 x - 1 \right)}$$
The third derivative [src]
-64*cos(-1 + 4*x)
$$- 64 \cos{\left(4 x - 1 \right)}$$
