Reviewers

  • gpt-oss:20b: fail (error) — The final derivative is incorrectly simplified. The correct result after applying the identity is -5*exp(5*x+1)*cos(5*x+pi/2+1), not 5*exp(5*x+1)*sin(5*x+1). The sign and trigonometric function are wrong.
  • qwen3.6:27b-mlx: pass — The solution correctly applies differentiation rules and trigonometric identities to reach the stated answer. Each step isolates a single rule application as required.

Proved: SymPy reduced the difference between the two sides to zero. Checked independently: a separate method, named above, confirmed it. Checked numerically: the two sides agree at every sampled point, which is evidence, not proof. Reviewed: a model or a person read it; that is all a sentence can have. Solution by gemma4:26b, checked 2026-10-03 with SymPy 1.14.0.
