Find the derivative of \(\sqrt[3]{(3x^{3} + 1}\) with respect to x.

Answer Details
To differentiate the function \(\sqrt[3]{(3x^3 + 1)}\), we use the chain rule. Let \(u = 3x^3 + 1\), then we have: \[\frac{d}{dx} \sqrt[3]{(3x^3 + 1)} = \frac{d}{du}u^{1/3}\cdot\frac{d}{dx}(3x^3 + 1)\] Simplifying, we get: \[\frac{d}{dx} \sqrt[3]{(3x^3 + 1)} = \frac{1}{3}(3x^3 + 1)^{-2/3}\cdot(9x^2)\] Simplifying further, we get: \[\frac{d}{dx} \sqrt[3]{(3x^3 + 1)} = \frac{3x^2}{\sqrt[3]{(3x^3 + 1)^2}}\] Therefore, the correct option is (b) \(\frac{3x^2}{\sqrt[3]{(3x^3 + 1)^2}}\).
