Find fracdydx for: 1. Y = 2u3, u = 8x - 1 2. Y = sin u, u = x - xcos x

Find $\frac{dy}{dx}$ for:

  1. $Y = 2u^3$, $u = 8x - 1$
  2. $Y = \sin u$, $u = x - x\cos x$

[5]

Problem 1: $Y = 2u^3$, $u = 8x - 1$ Problem 2: $Y = \sin u$, $u = x - x\cos x$ Chain rule: $\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{dy}{du} \cdot \dfrac{du}{dx}$ --- Step 1: Differentiate $Y$ with respect to $u$ $$\frac{dy}{du} = 2 \cdot 3u^2 = 6u^2$$ Step 2: Differentiate $u$ with respect to $x$ $$\frac{du}{dx}...
