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

    1. Let u=4xu = 4 x.

    2. The derivative of sine is cosine:

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

    3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by ddx4x\frac{d}{d x} 4 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: 44

      The result of the chain rule is:

      4cos(4x)4 \cos{\left(4 x \right)}

    So, the result is: 8cos(4x)8 \cos{\left(4 x \right)}


The answer is:

8cos(4x)8 \cos{\left(4 x \right)}
