\[\large d(3^{2x^2-3x})\]This follows the format: \(d(a^x) = a^x \cdot d(x)\cdot \ln(a)\)
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
So let's first find the derivative of the power. Can you solve : \(d(2x^2-3x)\)?
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
@dolphins121 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
uhmm
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the derivative of that would be 4x-3 right?

Yes, then just use the form to find your answer :)
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
So what would \(a^x\) be? and \(\ln(a)\)?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
a^x would be 3^4x-3 ?
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
That would be \(a^{d(x)}\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so a^x is the original problem?

yep :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and ln(a) is 3?
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
nope. \(\ln(a) = \ln(3)\)
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
because \(a=3\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah my bad thats what i meant. so the answer is 3^(4x-3) x ln(3) ?

nope, fit the format.

ohh so it's 3^(2x^2-3x) ⋅ 3^(4x-3) ⋅ ln(3) ?
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
Let me refresh, it's showing question marks :(
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh should i rewrite it?
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
Oh! you got it :) Good job. I got that too :D

thanks to you ! :)
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
sorry about the notation as well, \(d(3^{2x^2-3x}) = \frac{d}{dx}(3^{2x^2-3x}) = (4x-3)3^{2x^2-3x}\cdot \ln(3)\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its np. thank you so much !
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
Good job :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thanks :)
