3*x^5 - 5*x^3
Detail solution
  1. Differentiate 3x55x33 x^{5} - 5 x^{3} 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: x5x^{5} goes to 5x45 x^{4}

      So, the result is: 15x415 x^{4}

    2. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

      1. Apply the power rule: x3x^{3} goes to 3x23 x^{2}

      So, the result is: 15x2- 15 x^{2}

    The result is: 15x415x215 x^{4} - 15 x^{2}

  2. Now simplify:

    15x2(x21)15 x^{2} \left(x^{2} - 1\right)


The answer is:

15x2(x21)15 x^{2} \left(x^{2} - 1\right)
