Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Differentiate term by term:
Apply the power rule: goes to
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Apply the power rule: goes to
So, the result is:
So, the result is:
The derivative of the constant is zero.
The result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
6 / 2 \ \x - 3*x + 1/ *(-21 + 14*x)
5 / 2 \ / 2 2\ 14*\1 + x - 3*x/ *\1 + x - 3*x + 3*(-3 + 2*x) /
4 / 2 \ / 2 2\ 42*\1 + x - 3*x/ *(-3 + 2*x)*\6 - 18*x + 5*(-3 + 2*x) + 6*x /
