Differentiate y=(x^2+1)(e^-x)

Here, we're using the product rule (and the chain rule for the e^-x): y=(x²+1)(e^-x) dy/dx=(2x)(e^-x)+(x²+1)(-1)(e^-x) Then we simplify to get: dy/dx=(e^-x)(2x-x²-1)

Express 6cos(2x)+sin(x) in terms of sin(x). Hence solve the equation 6cos(2x) + sin(x) = 0, for 0° <= x <= 360°.

(1.) f(x)=x^3+3x^2-2x+15. (a.) find the differential of f(x) (b.) hence find the gradient of f(x) when x=6 (c.) is f(x) increasing or decreasing at this point?
