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. 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:

      So, the result is:

    3. The derivative of the constant is zero.

    The result is:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
          2
-8*x + 6*x 
$$6 x^{2} - 8 x$$
The second derivative [src]
4*(-2 + 3*x)
$$4 \cdot \left(3 x - 2\right)$$
The third derivative [src]
12
$$12$$
