Find the derivative : y=sin^3(4x^2)

OpenStudy (primeralph):

chain rule. Know it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah but how do i use chain rule here?

OpenStudy (primeralph):

let 4x^2 = A, so you have sin^3(A), then find dy/dA and multiply it by dA/dx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would the answer be 24xsin^2(4x^2)cos(4x^2)

OpenStudy (primeralph):

yeah. Good job.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i still dont get it, i just put down the answer from the back xD

OpenStudy (primeralph):

okay, chill.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait i get it, but shouldn't the answer be 24xsin^2(4x^2)cos^2(4x^2)?

OpenStudy (primeralph):

|dw:1368503883194:dw|

OpenStudy (primeralph):

no, just cos

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thx, i get it but wouldnt the answer be 24xsin^2(4x^2)cos(4x^2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean 24xsin^2(4x^2)cos^2(4x^2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nvm..

OpenStudy (primeralph):

you don't seem to get this stuff

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i get it nvm :P
