derivative of f(x)=(x^2+3)^3(x^3+3)^2
We save the definition: f(x) = (x2 + 3)3·(x3 + 3)2
1) Let's perform the differentiation: ddx((x2 + 3)3·(x3 + 3)2)
We differentiate u1 = (x2 + 3)3 and v2 = (x3 + 3)2 using: ddx(u1·v2) = ddx(u1)·v2 + u1·ddx(v2)
2) Let's differentiate u1: ddx((x2 + 3)3)
Apply the differentiation rule: ddx(fn) = n·ddx(f)·fn -1 with f = x2 + 3
ⓘ The derivative of x^n is n*x^(n-1): ddx((x2 + 3)3) = 3·ddx(x2 + 3)·(x2 + 3)2
3·ddx(x2 + 3)·(x2 + 3)2
ⓘ The derivative of a sum is the sum of the derivatives: ddx(x2 + 3) = ddx(x2) + 0
3·(ddx(x2) + 0)·(x2 + 3)2
ⓘ Adding 0 changes nothing: ddx(x2) + 0 = ddx(x2)■The derivative of x^n is n*x^(n-1): ddx(x2) = 2x
3·2x·(x2 + 3)2
ⅰ 3·2 = 6
6x·(x2 + 3)2
3) Let's differentiate v2: ddx((x3 + 3)2)
We differentiate using: ddx(fn) = n·ddx(f)·fn -1 (where f = x3 + 3)
ⓘ The derivative of x^n is n*x^(n-1): ddx((x3 + 3)2) = 2·ddx(x3 + 3)·(x3 + 3)
2·ddx(x3 + 3)·(x3 + 3)
ⓘ Expand by multiplying each term inside the parentheses: 2·ddx(x3 + 3)·(x3 + 3) = 2·ddx(x3 + 3)·x3 + 6·ddx(x3 + 3)■The derivative of a sum is the sum of the derivatives: ddx(x3 + 3) = ddx(x3) + 0
2·(ddx(x3) + 0)·x3 + 6·(ddx(x3) + 0)
ⓘ Adding 0 changes nothing: ddx(x3) + 0 = ddx(x3)■The derivative of x^n is n*x^(n-1): ddx(x3) = 3x2
2·3x2·x3 + 6·3x2
ⓘ Multiplications are done before additions and subtractions: 2·3 = 6, 6·3 = 18■Multiplying powers with the same base adds the exponents: x2x3 = x5
6x5 + 18x2
4) You can then resume the differentiation:
ⅰ ddx((x2 + 3)3·(x3 + 3)2) = 6x·(x2 + 3)2·(x3 + 3)2 + (x2 + 3)3·(6x5 + 18x2)
6x·(x2 + 3)2·(x3 + 3)2 + (x2 + 3)3·(6x5 + 18x2)
(x2 + 3)2·(6x·(x3 + 3)2 + (x2 + 3)·(6x5 + 18x2))
ⓘ A square being never negative, x2 + 3 is never zero and cannot be factored in ℝ
