Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Differentiate term by term:
The derivative of the constant is zero.
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 result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
The answer is:
-25*x -------------- ___________ / 2 \/ 1 - 25*x
/ 2 \
| 25*x |
-25*|1 + ---------|
| 2|
\ 1 - 25*x /
-------------------
___________
/ 2
\/ 1 - 25*x
