Derivative of \( \displaystyle e^{3 - x} \sin{\left(x - 3 \right)} \)

Problem 2.625 · hard

Differentiate \( \displaystyle f(x) = e^{3 - x} \sin{\left(x - 3 \right)} \).
  1. \[ \frac{d}{d x} e^{3 - x} \sin{\left(x - 3 \right)} \]
    derivativeStart with the derivative of the function.✓ Proved
  2. \[ = e^{3 - x} \frac{d}{d x} \sin{\left(x - 3 \right)} + \sin{\left(x - 3 \right)} \frac{d}{d x} e^{3 - x} \]
    productApply the product rule.✓ Proved
  3. \[ = - e^{3 - x} \sin{\left(x - 3 \right)} + e^{3 - x} \frac{d}{d x} \sin{\left(x - 3 \right)} \]
    chainDifferentiate the first part using the chain rule.✓ Proved
  4. \[ = - e^{3 - x} \sin{\left(x - 3 \right)} + e^{3 - x} \cos{\left(x - 3 \right)} \]
    chain algebraDifferentiate the second part using the chain rule. Simplify the expression by multiplying constants.✓ Proved
  5. \[ = \left(- \sin{\left(x - 3 \right)} + \cos{\left(x - 3 \right)}\right) e^{3 - x} \]
    simplifyFactor out the common term.✓ Proved
Answer \( \left(- \sin{\left(x - 3 \right)} + \cos{\left(x - 3 \right)}\right) e^{3 - x} \)

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.
