Homework Statement



The problem is : f(x)= √3 cos^5(sinx²-3/³√x)

Homework Equations



The only thing i kno is that f prime of x comes next and that's all.. calculus is kind of confusing but i'll make sure i understand with your help. Thanks in advance

The Attempt at a Solution

I don't understand finding the derivative of a functionn is hard please explan to me please. I really would appreciate it.
 
Is this the function you want to differentiate?
[tex]f(x)~=~\sqrt{3}cos^5\left(sin(x^2) - \frac{3}{\sqrt[3]{x}}\right)[/tex]

Or is it this?
[tex]f(x)~=~\sqrt{3}cos^5\left(sin^2(x) - \frac{3}{\sqrt[3]{x}}\right)[/tex]

Or something else?

Do you know the chain rule?
