Rank the following steps to differentiate $$y=\cos(\ln(x))$$ using the chain rule (from first to last):
A) Identify the outer function as $$\cos(u)$$ and the inner function as $$\ln(x)$$.
B) Differentiate the outer function to obtain $$-\sin(\ln(x))$$ (keeping the inner function unchanged).
C) Differentiate the inner function to obtain $$\frac{1}{x}$$.
D) Multiply the derivatives from steps B and C.
Identify the outer function as $$\ln(x)$$ and the inner function as $$\cos(u)$$, then differentiate in that order and multiply
Differentiate $$\ln(x)$$ first treating it as a constant, then differentiate $$\cos(u)$$ without applying the chain rule properly, and finally multiply
Differentiate $$\cos(\ln(x))$$ by applying the product rule between $$\cos$$ and $$\ln(x)$$, then multiply by 1
Identify the outer function $$\cos(u)$$ and inner function $$\ln(x)$$, differentiate the outer function to get -sin(ln(x)), differentiate the inner function to get 1/x, then multiply these derivatives
