derivative of y=cos(3x^2+6/3-5x^3)

Solution

The derivative of y=cos(3x2+635x3)y = \cos\left(3x^2 + \frac{6}{3} - 5x^3\right) can be computed using the chain rule.

Step-by-step solution:

  1. Rewrite the expression for simplification: y=cos(3x2+25x3)y = \cos\left(3x^2 + 2 - 5x^3\right)

  2. Let u=3x2+25x3u = 3x^2 + 2 - 5x^3. Now, y=cos(u)y = \cos(u).

  3. Differentiate y=cos(u)y = \cos(u) with respect to uu: dydu=sin(u)\frac{dy}{du} = -\sin(u)

  4. Now, differentiate u=3x2+25x3u = 3x^2 + 2 - 5x^3 with respect to xx: dudx=6x15x2\frac{du}{dx} = 6x - 15x^2

  5. Finally, apply the chain rule: dydx=dydududx=sin(3x2+25x3)(6x15x2)\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{dy}{du} \cdot \frac{du}{dx} = -\sin\left(3x^2 + 2 - 5x^3\right) \cdot (6x - 15x^2)

Thus, the derivative of yy is: dydx=sin(3x2+25x3)(6x15x2)\frac{dy}{dx} = -\sin\left(3x^2 + 2 - 5x^3\right) \cdot (6x - 15x^2)
