derivative of

f (x) = arccos (- 3 x)

\frac{3}{1 - 9 x ^{2}}

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (arccos (- 3 x))

Apply the chain rule:

- \frac{1}{1 - ( - 3 x ) ^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} (- 3 x)

= - \frac{1}{1 - ( - 3 x ) ^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} (- 3 x)

\frac{d}{d x} (- 3 x) = - 3

= - \frac{1}{1 - ( - 3 x ) ^{2}} (- 3)

Simplify

- \frac{1}{1 - ( - 3 x ) ^{2}} (- 3) : \frac{3}{1 - 9 x ^{2}}

= \frac{3}{1 - 9 x ^{2}}
