Detail solution
  1. Differentiate term by term:

    1. Differentiate term by term:

      1. Apply the power rule: goes to

      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]
      4      3
- 10*x  + 4*x 
$$- 10 x^{4} + 4 x^{3}$$
The second derivative [src]
   2           
4*x *(3 - 10*x)
$$4 x^{2} \left(3 - 10 x\right)$$
The third derivative [src]
24*x*(1 - 5*x)
$$24 x \left(1 - 5 x\right)$$
