derivative of

2 x cos (x)

2 (cos (x) - x sin (x))

Solution steps

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Apply the Product Rule:

(f \cdot g)^{'} = f^{'} \cdot g + f \cdot g^{'}

f = x, g = cos (x)

= 2 (\frac{d x}{d x} cos (x) + \frac{d}{d x} (cos (x)) x)

\frac{d x}{d x} = 1

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

= 2 (1 \cdot cos (x) + (- sin (x)) x)

Simplify

= 2 (cos (x) - x sin (x))
