Detail solution
  1. Apply the product rule:

    ; to find :

    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:

    ; to find :

    1. Let .

    2. The derivative of is itself.

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

      1. Differentiate term by term:

        1. Apply the power rule: goes to

        2. The derivative of the constant is zero.

        The result is:

      The result of the chain rule is:

    The result is:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:

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