Detail solution
  1. Apply the product rule:

    ddxf(x)g(x)=f(x)ddxg(x)+g(x)ddxf(x)\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} g{\left(x \right)} = f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}

    f(x)=x2f{\left(x \right)} = x^{2}; to find ddxf(x)\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}:

    1. Apply the power rule: x2x^{2} goes to 2x2 x

    g(x)=cos(2x)g{\left(x \right)} = \cos{\left(2 x \right)}; to find ddxg(x)\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}:

    1. Let u=2xu = 2 x.

    2. The derivative of cosine is negative sine:

      dducos(u)=sin(u)\frac{d}{d u} \cos{\left(u \right)} = - \sin{\left(u \right)}

    3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by ddx2x\frac{d}{d x} 2 x:

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

        1. Apply the power rule: xx goes to 11

        So, the result is: 22

      The result of the chain rule is:

      2sin(2x)- 2 \sin{\left(2 x \right)}

    The result is: 2x2sin(2x)+2xcos(2x)- 2 x^{2} \sin{\left(2 x \right)} + 2 x \cos{\left(2 x \right)}

  2. Now simplify:

    2x(xsin(2x)+cos(2x))2 x \left(- x \sin{\left(2 x \right)} + \cos{\left(2 x \right)}\right)


The answer is:

2x(xsin(2x)+cos(2x))2 x \left(- x \sin{\left(2 x \right)} + \cos{\left(2 x \right)}\right)
