Find $$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(x \sin{\left(x \right)}\right)$$$.
Solution
Apply the product rule $$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(f{\left(x \right)} g{\left(x \right)}\right) = \frac{d}{dx} \left(f{\left(x \right)}\right) g{\left(x \right)} + f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{dx} \left(g{\left(x \right)}\right)$$$ with $$$f{\left(x \right)} = x$$$ and $$$g{\left(x \right)} = \sin{\left(x \right)}$$$:
$${\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dx} \left(x \sin{\left(x \right)}\right)\right)} = {\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dx} \left(x\right) \sin{\left(x \right)} + x \frac{d}{dx} \left(\sin{\left(x \right)}\right)\right)}$$The derivative of the sine is $$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(\sin{\left(x \right)}\right) = \cos{\left(x \right)}$$$:
$$x {\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dx} \left(\sin{\left(x \right)}\right)\right)} + \sin{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{dx} \left(x\right) = x {\color{red}\left(\cos{\left(x \right)}\right)} + \sin{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{dx} \left(x\right)$$Apply the power rule $$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(x^{n}\right) = n x^{n - 1}$$$ with $$$n = 1$$$, in other words, $$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(x\right) = 1$$$:
$$x \cos{\left(x \right)} + \sin{\left(x \right)} {\color{red}\left(\frac{d}{dx} \left(x\right)\right)} = x \cos{\left(x \right)} + \sin{\left(x \right)} {\color{red}\left(1\right)}$$Thus, $$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(x \sin{\left(x \right)}\right) = x \cos{\left(x \right)} + \sin{\left(x \right)}$$$.
Answer
$$$\frac{d}{dx} \left(x \sin{\left(x \right)}\right) = x \cos{\left(x \right)} + \sin{\left(x \right)}$$$A
