Find the derivatives of a product using product rule
Example 2 (Product rule + Chain rule + Factoring)
The Product Rule Given that f(x)=3x2(4x2-1)7, find f’(x).

If u(x) and v(x) are two functions of x and


y = uv then

dy dv du
= u +v
dx dx dx

Example
=y 4x 2 (3x − 1)

=
u 4x 2 =
v 3x − 1
du dv
= 3

[Ans: f '(x) =6x( 4x 2 − 1)6 (32x 2 − 1) ]


dy dv du
= u +v Example 3 (Product Rule of two composite

dy (2x − 1)(3) − (3x)(2)


=
dx (2x − 1)2
dy 6x − 3 − 6x
=
dx (2x − 1)2
dy −3
=
dx (2x − 1)2
