\frac{d}{d x} (2 cos^{4} (x))

- 8 cos^{3} (x) sin (x)

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (2 cos^{4} (x))

Take the constant out:

(a \cdot f)^{'} = a \cdot f^{'}

= 2 \frac{d}{d x} (cos^{4} (x))

Apply the chain rule:

4 (cos (x))^{3} \frac{d}{d x} (cos (x))

= 4 (cos (x))^{3} \frac{d}{d x} (cos (x))

\frac{d}{d x} (cos (x)) = - sin (x)

= 2 \cdot 4 (cos (x))^{3} (- sin (x))

Simplify

= - 8 cos^{3} (x) sin (x)

f (x) = \frac{x ^{2} + 1}{x}

\int \frac{1}{e ^{x} - 4 e ^{- x}} d x

y^{^{'}} = \frac{( y ^{4} - 1 )}{4 x y ^{3}}

\int \frac{8}{w ^{2} 4 - w ^{2}} d w

\frac{d}{d x} (x^{4} - 3)
