Difficult Problems

1

Solved example of derivatives of trigonometric functions

$\frac{d}{dx}\cos\left(3x^2+x-5\right)$
2

The derivative of the cosine of a function is equal to minus the sine of the function times the derivative of the function, in other words, if $f(x) = \cos(x)$, then $f'(x) = -\sin(x)\cdot D_x(x)$

$-\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)\frac{d}{dx}\left(3x^2+x-5\right)$
3

The derivative of a sum of two or more functions is the sum of the derivatives of each function

$-\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)\left(\frac{d}{dx}\left(3x^2\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(x\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(-5\right)\right)$

The derivative of the constant function ($-5$) is equal to zero

$-\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)\left(\frac{d}{dx}\left(3x^2\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(x\right)+0\right)$

$x+0=x$, where $x$ is any expression

$-\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)\left(\frac{d}{dx}\left(3x^2\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(x\right)\right)$
4

The derivative of the constant function ($-5$) is equal to zero

$-\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)\left(\frac{d}{dx}\left(3x^2\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(x\right)\right)$
5

The derivative of the linear function is equal to $1$

$-\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)\left(\frac{d}{dx}\left(3x^2\right)+1\right)$
6

The derivative of a function multiplied by a constant ($3$) is equal to the constant times the derivative of the function

$-\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)\left(3\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^2\right)+1\right)$

The power rule for differentiation states that if $n$ is a real number and $f(x) = x^n$, then $f'(x) = nx^{n-1}$

$-\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)\left(3\cdot 2x^{\left(2-1\right)}+1\right)$

Subtract the values $2$ and $-1$

$-\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)\left(3\cdot 2x^{1}+1\right)$

Multiply $3$ times $2$

$-\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)\left(6x^{1}+1\right)$

Any expression to the power of $1$ is equal to that same expression

$-\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)\left(6x+1\right)$
7

The power rule for differentiation states that if $n$ is a real number and $f(x) = x^n$, then $f'(x) = nx^{n-1}$

$-\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)\left(6x+1\right)$

Multiplying polynomials $-1$ and $6x+1$

$\left(-6x-1\right)\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)$
8

Simplifying

$\left(-6x-1\right)\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)$

Final Answer

$\left(-6x-1\right)\sin\left(3x^2+x-5\right)$
