Question

Find the derivative of x^3 (2x-5)^4

Answer 1

\[x^3(2x-5)^4\]

Answer 2

its the chain rule, do you know what that is?

Answer 3

Yes, its just way to many steps for me to process right now. Ill show you what I have so far.

Answer 4

4x^3 (2x-5)^3 * (12x^2 (2x-5)^3 * 2
I feel like I goofed up on this :(

Answer 5

x^2 (2x-5)^3 (14x-15)

Answer 6

Looks like someone else uses WolframAlpha too :(

Answer 7

I have not done derivatives in a while

Answer 8

Found out how to do it, It was so much simpler than I though it would be.
I just used the product rule of x^3 * (2x-5)^4

Answer 9

Thanks for giving me the motivation to think!
