Detail solution
  1. Differentiate term by term:

    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:

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

      1. Let .

      2. The derivative of sine is cosine:

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

- -- - 2*cos(x - 1)
   2               
  x                
$$- 2 \cos{\left(x - 1 \right)} - \frac{3}{x^{2}}$$
The second derivative [src]

  \x               /
$$2 \left(\sin{\left(x - 1 \right)} + \frac{3}{x^{3}}\right)$$
The third derivative [src]
