PLEASE HELP! WILL REWARD MEDAL! Find the derivative f(x)=(x^2-2x+1)(x^3-1)

myininaya (myininaya):

Do you know the product rule?

myininaya (myininaya):

Or you could multiply first then use just power rule and constant rule.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, so would I get f'(x)=5x 4 −8x 3 +3x 2 −2x+2 ? @myininaya

myininaya (myininaya):

looks good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Really? Awesome yay :)

myininaya (myininaya):

yes really. good job,

OpenStudy (shamil98):

product rule, f'g + fg' so (2x-2)(x^3-1) + (x^2 -2x + 1)(3x^2) or what you did. good job

OpenStudy (anonymous):
