Derivatives and Rules of Differentiation

The video tutorial explains how to find the first and second derivatives of a composite function, f(x) = cos(2x^5). It begins by identifying the inner and outer functions and uses the chain rule to find the first derivative. The second derivative is calculated using the product rule, followed by simplification and factoring to express it in a more concise form.

What is the outer function in the given composite function?

• 2x to the fifth

• Cosine

• Tangent

• Sine
