Apply the product rule to differentiate 3cos(x)+4x2
step 2
Differentiate 3cos(x) to get −3sin(x)
step 3
Differentiate 4x2 to get 8x
step 4
Combine the derivatives to get the final result: −3sin(x)+8x
Answer
−3sin(x)+8x
Key Concept
Differentiation of trigonometric and polynomial functions
Explanation
The derivative of a sum of functions is the sum of the derivatives of each function. The derivative of cos(x) is −sin(x), and the derivative of x2 is 2x. The constants are multiplied accordingly.
