sec(x) ___ E - 4*\/ x
E^sec(x) - 4*sqrt(x)
Differentiate term by term:
Let .
The derivative of is itself.
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Rewrite the function to be differentiated:
Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
The derivative of cosine is negative sine:
The result of the chain rule is:
The result of the chain rule is:
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Apply the power rule: goes to
So, the result is:
The result is:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
2 sec(x) - ----- + e *sec(x)*tan(x) ___ \/ x
1 2 2 sec(x) 2 sec(x) / 2 \ sec(x) ---- + sec (x)*tan (x)*e + tan (x)*e *sec(x) + \1 + tan (x)/*e *sec(x) 3/2 x
3 3 3 sec(x) 3 sec(x) 2 3 sec(x) 2 / 2 \ sec(x) / 2 \ sec(x) - ------ + sec (x)*tan (x)*e + tan (x)*e *sec(x) + 3*sec (x)*tan (x)*e + 3*sec (x)*\1 + tan (x)/*e *tan(x) + 5*\1 + tan (x)/*e *sec(x)*tan(x) 5/2 2*x
