Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Apply chain - rule

The chain - rule states that if $y = f(g(x))$, then $y'=f'(g(x))\cdot g'(x)$. Let $u = 7\ln(x)$, so $f(x)=4\cos(u)$. The derivative of $\cos(u)$ with respect to $u$ is $-\sin(u)$, and the derivative of $u = 7\ln(x)$ with respect to $x$ is $\frac{7}{x}$. Then $f'(x)=4\times(-\sin(7\ln(x)))\times\frac{7}{x}=-\frac{28\sin(7\ln(x))}{x}$.

Step2: Evaluate $f'(1)$

Substitute $x = 1$ into $f'(x)$. Since $\ln(1)=0$, then $\sin(7\ln(1))=\sin(0) = 0$. So $f'(1)=-\frac{28\sin(7\ln(1))}{1}=0$.

Answer:

$f'(x)=-\frac{28\sin(7\ln(x))}{x}$, $f'(1)=0$
