Differentiate using product rule:

Here is the question: $h(x)=(x^2+5x+7).(x^3+2x-4)$

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right? $(2x+5)(3x^2+2)$

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

let $u = x^2 + 5x + 7 ===> \frac{du}{dx} = 2x + 5$ $v = x^3 + 3x - 4 ===> \frac{dv}{dx} = 3x^2 + 3$ then $\frac{dy}{dx} = u \times \frac{dv}{dx} + v \times \frac{ du}{dx}$

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

just substitute and simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(f(x).g(x))' = f(x).g'(x) + g(x).f'(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes let me do it. $(x^2+5x+7) (3x^2+2) + (2x+5)(x^3+2x-4)$

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup. looks right to me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now, I am confuse with the next part. I cannot simplify. :(

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

normally you would be expected to simplify.... not sure on your question requirements

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes I have to simplify it after applying product rule.

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

a simple method is to draw up a grid |dw:1338113768920:dw|
