What is the gradient of the function f(x) = 2x^2 + 3x - 7 at the point where x = -2?

To work out the gradient of a function f(x), we need to differentiate it with respect to x, to give us f'(x). If x = a at a point, then the gradient of f(x) at that point is f'(a) (substitute a in place of x...

If n is an integer such that n>1 and f(x)=(sin(n*x))^n, what is f'(x)?

Let us denote sin(nx) = u(x), where u is a function of x. The equation is now therefore f(x) =(u(x))^n. For simplicity, we will write that as f(x) = u^n By the chain rule, we know that f'(x) = df/dx = (df/du...
