Derivative of y=((x-2)^2)*(x+2)

1. Apply the product rule:

   $$\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} g{\left(x \right)} = f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$$

   $f{\left(x \right)} = \left(x - 2\right)^{2}$; to find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$:

   1. Let $u = x - 2$.

   2. Apply the power rule: $u^{2}$ goes to $2 u$

   3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} \left(x - 2\right)$:

      1. Differentiate $x - 2$ term by term:

         1. Apply the power rule: $x$ goes to $1$

         2. The derivative of the constant $\left(-1\right) 2$ is zero.

         The result is: $1$

      The result of the chain rule is:

      $$2 x - 4$$

   $g{\left(x \right)} = x + 2$; to find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$:

   1. Differentiate $x + 2$ term by term:

      1. Apply the power rule: $x$ goes to $1$

      2. The derivative of the constant $2$ is zero.

      The result is: $1$

   The result is: $\left(x + 2\right) \left(2 x - 4\right) + \left(x - 2\right)^{2}$

2. Now simplify:

   $$\left(x - 2\right) \left(3 x + 2\right)$$

The answer is:
