Detail solution
  1. Differentiate (x2+(2x4+x3))+4\left(- x^{2} + \left(2 x^{4} + x^{3}\right)\right) + 4 term by term:

    1. Differentiate x2+(2x4+x3)- x^{2} + \left(2 x^{4} + x^{3}\right) term by term:

      1. Differentiate 2x4+x32 x^{4} + x^{3} 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: x4x^{4} goes to 4x34 x^{3}

          So, the result is: 8x38 x^{3}

        2. Apply the power rule: x3x^{3} goes to 3x23 x^{2}

        The result is: 8x3+3x28 x^{3} + 3 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: x2x^{2} goes to 2x2 x

        So, the result is: 2x- 2 x

      The result is: 8x3+3x22x8 x^{3} + 3 x^{2} - 2 x

    2. The derivative of the constant 44 is zero.

    The result is: 8x3+3x22x8 x^{3} + 3 x^{2} - 2 x

  2. Now simplify:

    x(8x2+3x2)x \left(8 x^{2} + 3 x - 2\right)


The answer is:

x(8x2+3x2)x \left(8 x^{2} + 3 x - 2\right)
