       3
(1 - x) 
$$\left(1 - x\right)^{3}$$
(1 - x)^3
Detail solution
  1. Let .

  2. Apply the power rule: goes to

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

    1. Differentiate term by term:

      1. The derivative of the constant is zero.

      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:

    The result of the chain rule is:

  4. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
          2
-3*(1 - x) 
$$- 3 \left(1 - x\right)^{2}$$
The second derivative [src]
6*(1 - x)
$$6 \left(1 - x\right)$$
The third derivative [src]
-6
$$-6$$
