Answer

$f'\left( x \right) = 3\cos x + 2\sin x$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & f\left( x \right) = 3\sin x - 2\cos x \cr & {\text{Differentiating}} \cr & f'\left( x \right) = \frac{d}{{dx}}\left[ {3\sin x - 2\cos x} \right] \cr & {\text{Use the difference rule for derivatives }} \cr & f'\left( x \right) = \frac{d}{{dx}}\left[ {3\sin x} \right] - \frac{d}{{dx}}\left[ {2\cos x} \right] \cr & {\text{Pull out the constants}} \cr & f'\left( x \right) = 3\frac{d}{{dx}}\left[ {\sin x} \right] - 2\frac{d}{{dx}}\left[ {\cos x} \right] \cr & {\text{Use the Derivatives of Trigonometric Functions }} \cr & f'\left( x \right) = 3\left( {\cos x} \right) - 2\left( { - \sin x} \right) \cr & {\text{Simplify}} \cr & f'\left( x \right) = 3\cos x + 2\sin x \cr} $$
