Use Chain Rule: step_1: Use the chain rule to differentiate h(x)=(arctan(x5+2x))7. Let u=arctan(x5+2x), then h(x)=u7. dudh=7u6.
Find dxdu: step_2: Now find dxdu, which is the derivative of u=arctan(x5+2x). dxdu=1+(x5+2x)21∗dxd(x5+2x).
Differentiate Inside Function: step_3: Differentiate the inside function x5+2x.dxd(x5+2x)=5x4+2.
Combine Results: step_4: Combine the results from step_2 and step_3. dxdu=1+(x5+2x)25x4+2.
Apply Chain Rule: step_5: Apply the chain rule by multiplying dudh from step_1 with dxdu from step_4.f′(x)=dxdh=dudh×dxdu=7u6×(1+(x5+2x)2)(5x4+2).But we made a mistake, it should be 7u6×dxdu without the (5x4+2).
