With further clarification, it seems that the original problem was to find the derivative of a function \"k%28x%29+=sin%28%281%2F4%29%2Ae%5E%28-8x%29%29\". It turns out that the derivative of k(x) is
\n" ); document.write( "k'(x) =\"%281%2F4%29%2Acos%28%281%2F4%29%2Ae%5E%28-8x%29%29%2A%28-8e%5E%28-8x%29%29\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The question was actually, how do you simplify this answer! \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "k'(x) = \"-2+e%5E%28-8x%29%2Acos%28%281%2F4%29e%5E%28-8k%29%29\"\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "By the way, Calculus is usually not as hard as the algebra it takes to simplify it!! If you want to be GOOD at Calculus, make sure you have a GOOD algebra background before you get there!!\r
