Derivative of x^4-8x^2+7

The solution

You have entered [src]

 4      2    
x  - 8*x  + 7

\left(x^{4} - 8 x^{2}\right) + 7

x^4 - 8*x^2 + 7

Detail solution

Differentiate $\left(x^{4} - 8 x^{2}\right) + 7$ term by term:
1. Differentiate $x^{4} - 8 x^{2}$ term by term:
  1. Apply the power rule: $x^{4}$ goes to $4 x^{3}$
  2. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
    1. Apply the power rule: $x^{2}$ goes to $2 x$
    So, the result is: $- 16 x$
  The result is: $4 x^{3} - 16 x$
2. The derivative of the constant $7$ is zero.
The result is: $4 x^{3} - 16 x$
Now simplify:

$4 x \left(x^{2} - 4\right)$

The answer is:

4 x \left(x^{2} - 4\right)
