Derivative of (2x³-x)

1. Differentiate $2 x^{3} - x$ term by term:

   1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

      1. Apply the power rule: $x^{3}$ goes to $3 x^{2}$

      So, the result is: $6 x^{2}$

   2. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

      1. Apply the power rule: $x$ goes to $1$

      So, the result is: $-1$

   The result is: $6 x^{2} - 1$

The answer is:

$$6 x^{2} - 1$$
