x  + 2*x 
$$x^{4} + 2 x^{2}$$
x^4 + 2*x^2
Detail solution
  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. Now simplify:


The answer is:

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