Detail solution
  1. Differentiate term by term:

    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. Apply the power rule: goes to

        So, the result is:

      The result is:

    2. The derivative of the constant is zero.

    The result is:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
     3      
- 4*x  + 4*x
$$- 4 x^{3} + 4 x$$
The second derivative [src]
  /       2\
4*\1 - 3*x /
$$4 \left(1 - 3 x^{2}\right)$$
The third derivative [src]
-24*x
$$- 24 x$$
