Find the derivative, dy/dx, of y = 8xcos(3x).

Let u= 8x then du/dx = 8Let v= cos(3x) then dv/dx = -3sin(3x)Therefore using the product rule: dy/dx = (cos(3x))(8) + (8x)(-3sin(3x))So dy/dx = 8cos(3x) - 24xsin(3x) .

I don't understand the point of differentiation or integration


Integral of Cosec(x)/Sec(x) (i.e. Use of trignometric identities)
