If y=f(x + g(x))
Then using the chain rule is it correct to state the derivative of y as below?
y'= f'(x + g(x)).(x + g(x))' = (1 + f'(g(x))).(1 + g'(x))
If y=f(x + g(x))
Then using the chain rule is it correct to state the derivative of y as below?
y'= f'(x + g(x)).(x + g(x))' = (1 + f'(g(x))).(1 + g'(x))
No:\begin{align}y'&=f'\bigl(x+g(x)\bigr).\bigl(x+g(x)\bigr)'\\&=f'\bigl(x+g(x)\bigr).\bigl(1+g'(x)\bigr).\end{align}
