-4 ----------- _________ \/ 3*x - 2
-4/sqrt(3*x - 2)
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Differentiate term by term:
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Apply the power rule: goes to
So, the result is:
The derivative of the constant is zero.
The result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
The result of the chain rule is:
So, the result is:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
6 ------------ 3/2 (3*x - 2)
-27 ------------- 5/2 (-2 + 3*x)
