  1. f′(x) = ex cos x (cos x − x sin x)


The rule    for finding the derivative  of  y   =   eu  is      =   eu ,    where   u   is  a   function    of  x.  Here    we

will    use the Product Rule    to  find    the derivative  of  the exponent:   f′(x)   =   ex  cos x   (cos    x   −   x   sin x).


  1. f′(x) = − 3e−3x sin 5x + 5e−3x cos 5x


The rule    for finding the derivative  of  y   =   eu  is      =   eu ,    where   u   is  a   function    of  x.  Here    we

will    use the Product Rule    to  find    the derivative: f′(x)   =   e−3x(−3)sin 5x  +   e−3x(5  cos 5x),    which

we  can rearrange   to  f′(x)   =   −3e−3x  sin 5x  +   5e−3x   cos 5x.


  1. f′(x) = πeπx − π


The rule    for finding the derivative  of  y   =   eu  is      =   eu ,    where   u   is  a   function    of  x   and the

rule    for finding the derivative  of  y   =   ln  u   is   ,  where   u   is  a   function    of  x.

We  get f′(x)   =   eπx(π)  −    πeπx.  This    can be  simplified  to  f′(x)   =   πeπx    −   π.  You might   have

noticed that    ln  eπx =   πx, which   would   have    made    the derivative  a   little  easier.


  1. f′(x) =


The rule    for finding the derivative  of  y   =   loga u  is   ,  where   u   is  a   function    of  x.

Before  we  find    the derivative, we  can use the laws    of  logarithms  to  expand  the logarithm.  We

get f(x)    =   log 12   x^3    =   3   log 12   x. Now we  can find    the derivative: f′(x)   =   .
