Differentiate sin(x)+cos(5x) term by term:
-
The derivative of sine is cosine:
dxdsin(x)=cos(x)
-
Let u=5x.
-
The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
dudcos(u)=−sin(u)
-
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by dxd5x:
-
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
-
Apply the power rule: x goes to 1
So, the result is: 5
The result of the chain rule is:
−5sin(5x)
The result is: −5sin(5x)+cos(x)
