Find the derivative of LaTeX:  \displaystyle y = \frac{\left(- 9 x - 1\right)^{3} e^{x} \cos^{4}{\left(x \right)}}{\left(7 - 8 x\right)^{2} \left(x + 7\right)^{2} \sqrt{\left(4 x + 7\right)^{3}}}

Taking the natural logarithm of both sides of the equation and expanding the right hand side gives: LaTeX:  \ln(y) = \ln{\left(\frac{\left(- 9 x - 1\right)^{3} e^{x} \cos^{4}{\left(x \right)}}{\left(7 - 8 x\right)^{2} \left(x + 7\right)^{2} \sqrt{\left(4 x + 7\right)^{3}}} \right)}   Expanding the right hand side using the product and quotient properties of logarithms gives: LaTeX:  \ln(y) = x + 3 \ln{\left(- 9 x - 1 \right)} + 4 \ln{\left(\cos{\left(x \right)} \right)}- 2 \ln{\left(7 - 8 x \right)} - 2 \ln{\left(x + 7 \right)} - \frac{3 \ln{\left(4 x + 7 \right)}}{2}   Taking the derivative on both sides of the equation yields: LaTeX:  \frac{y'}{y} = - \frac{4 \sin{\left(x \right)}}{\cos{\left(x \right)}} + 1 - \frac{6}{4 x + 7} - \frac{2}{x + 7} - \frac{27}{- 9 x - 1} + \frac{16}{7 - 8 x}   Solving for LaTeX:  \displaystyle y' and substituting out y using the original equation gives LaTeX:  y' = \left(- \frac{4 \sin{\left(x \right)}}{\cos{\left(x \right)}} + 1 - \frac{6}{4 x + 7} - \frac{2}{x + 7} - \frac{27}{- 9 x - 1} + \frac{16}{7 - 8 x}\right)\left(\frac{\left(- 9 x - 1\right)^{3} e^{x} \cos^{4}{\left(x \right)}}{\left(7 - 8 x\right)^{2} \left(x + 7\right)^{2} \sqrt{\left(4 x + 7\right)^{3}}} \right)   Using some Trigonometric identities to simplify gives LaTeX:  y' = \left(- 4 \tan{\left(x \right)} + 1 - \frac{27}{- 9 x - 1}- \frac{6}{4 x + 7} - \frac{2}{x + 7} + \frac{16}{7 - 8 x}\right)\left(\frac{\left(- 9 x - 1\right)^{3} e^{x} \cos^{4}{\left(x \right)}}{\left(7 - 8 x\right)^{2} \left(x + 7\right)^{2} \sqrt{\left(4 x + 7\right)^{3}}} \right)
