Math Problem Statement
Given f(x) = 7 x squared cosine x7x2cosx, find f prime left parenthesis x right parenthesisf′(x).
Solution
To find the derivative of the given function , we will use the product rule. The product rule states that if we have a function , then its derivative is:
Here, and .
First, we find the derivatives of and :
Now we apply the product rule:
Substitute , , , and into the product rule formula:
Simplify the expression:
Thus, the derivative of is:
