Derivative of y=xx^2-x

1. Differentiate $x x^{2} - x$ term by term:

   1. Apply the product rule:

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

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

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

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

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

      The result is: $3 x^{2}$

   2. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

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

      So, the result is: $-1$

   The result is: $3 x^{2} - 1$

The answer is:
