To find the derivative \( f'(x) \) of the function \( f(x) = x^{3}(x+4) \), we can use the product rule, which states that if you have two functions \( u \) and \( v \), then the derivative is given by \( (uv)' = u'v + uv' \). Here, let \( u = x^3 \) and \( v = x + 4 \). Now, we calculate: - \( u' = 3x^2 \) - \( v' = 1 \) Applying the product rule gives us: \[ f'(x) = u'v + uv' = (3x^2)(x + 4) + (x^3)(1) \] So, \[ f'(x) = 3x^2(x + 4) + x^3 \] Expanding this, we get: \[ f'(x) = 3x^3 + 12x^2 + x^3 = 4x^3 + 12x^2 \] Therefore, \( f'(x) = 4x^3 + 12x^2 \).
