Apply the product rule:
dxdf(x)g(x)=f(x)dxdg(x)+g(x)dxdf(x)
f(x)=x; to find dxdf(x):
-
Apply the power rule: x goes to 1
g(x)=acos(2x)+bsin(2x); to find dxdg(x):
-
Differentiate acos(2x)+bsin(2x) term by term:
-
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
-
Let u=2x.
-
The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
dudcos(u)=−sin(u)
-
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by dxd2x:
-
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: 2
The result of the chain rule is:
−2sin(2x)
So, the result is: −2asin(2x)
-
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
-
Let u=2x.
-
The derivative of sine is cosine:
dudsin(u)=cos(u)
-
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by dxd2x:
-
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: 2
The result of the chain rule is:
2cos(2x)
So, the result is: 2bcos(2x)
The result is: −2asin(2x)+2bcos(2x)
The result is: acos(2x)+bsin(2x)+x(−2asin(2x)+2bcos(2x))
