Apply Product Rule: Use the product rule for differentiation, which states that (fg)' = f'g + fg', where f and g are functions of x. Here, f(x) = sqrt(x) and g(x) = cos(x).Differentiate sqrt(x): Differentiate f(x) = sqrt(x) with respect to x to get f'(x). The derivative of sqrt(x) is (1/2)x^(-1/2).Differentiate cos(x): Differentiate g(x) = cos(x) with respect to x to get g'(x). The derivative of cos(x) is -sin(x).Apply Product Rule: Apply the product rule: (sqrt(x)cos(x))' = (1/2)x^(-1/2)cos(x) + sqrt(x)(-sin(x)).Simplify Expression: Simplify the expression: (1/2)x^(-1/2)cos(x) - x^(1/2)sin(x).Write in Terms of sqrt(x): Write the expression in terms of sqrt(x): (cos(x))/(2sqrt(x)) - sqrt(x)sin(x).Match with Answer Choices: Match the simplified derivative with the given answer choices.
