Find the derivative

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\huge y=(15d)e^{\frac{ -d }{ 5 }}\]

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

6 penguins on board!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\huge y= (15d)'(e^{\frac{ -d }{ 5 }})+(15d)((e^{\frac{ -d }{ 5 }})'\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y'= *

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are you differentiating with respect to d or x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or is d a constant?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"d"*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\huge y'= 15(e^{\frac{ -d }{ 5 }})-30d(e^{\frac{ -d }{ 5 }})\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ah sorry, my eyes went somewhere. Sorry about that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

d is a constant :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

d is the variable, not a constant.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and you are almost correct. The 30 is not right.

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

check your second part of your answer

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

(e^(-d/5)' = -(1/5)e*(-d/5)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@burhan101 are you there? If you are, please read what cwrw238 has written above.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@cwrw238 im a little confused
