Detail solution
  1. Differentiate 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: goes to

      So, the result is:

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

      1. Let .

      2. Apply the power rule: goes to

      3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :

        1. Differentiate term by term:

          1. Apply the power rule: goes to

          2. The derivative of the constant is zero.

          The result is:

        The result of the chain rule is:

      So, the result is:

    The result is:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The first derivative [src]
   5          
-------- + 6*x
       2      
(x + 1)       
$$6 x + \frac{5}{\left(x + 1\right)^{2}}$$
The second derivative [src]
  /       5    \
2*|3 - --------|
  |           3|
  \    (1 + x) /
$$2 \left(3 - \frac{5}{\left(x + 1\right)^{3}}\right)$$
The third derivative [src]
   30   
--------
       4
(1 + x) 
$$\frac{30}{\left(x + 1\right)^{4}}$$
