$$4^{8 x - 5}$$
4^(8*x - 5)
Detail solution
  1. Let .

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

    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 the constant is zero.

      The result is:

    The result of the chain rule is:

  3. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
   8*x - 5       
8*4       *log(4)
$$8 \cdot 4^{8 x - 5} \log{\left(4 \right)}$$
The second derivative [src]
 8*x    2   
4   *log (4)
------------
     16     
$$\frac{4^{8 x} \log{\left(4 \right)}^{2}}{16}$$
The third derivative [src]
 8*x    3   
4   *log (4)
------------
     2      
$$\frac{4^{8 x} \log{\left(4 \right)}^{3}}{2}$$
