Answer

\[ \begin{array}{lll} \text{(a)} & \frac{dy}{dx} = 60x^2 + 24x \\ \text{(b)} & \frac{dy}{dx} = -8x^3 - 6x^2 \\ \text{(c)} & \frac{dy}{dx} = 2x(1 - 4x)^3(1 - 12x) \\ \text{(d)} & \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2x(1 - 3x^2)}{\sqrt{1 - 2x^2}} \\ \text{(e)} & \frac{dy}{dx} = 8(2x + 7)^5(7x - 1) \\ \text{(f)} & \frac{dy}{dx} = (x + 5)^2(x - 4)^3(7x + 8) \end{array} \]

Solution

**(a)** Given \[ y=4x^2(5x+3), \] let \[ u=4x^2,\quad v=5x+3. \] Then, \[ u'=8x,\quad v'=5. \] By the product rule, \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=u'v+uv'=8x(5x+3)+4x^2\cdot 5=40x^2+24x+20x^2. \] Simplify: \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=60x^2+24x. \] --- **(b)** For \[ y=-2x^3(x+1), \] set \[ u=-2x^3,\quad v=x+1. \] Then, \[ u'=-6x^2,\quad v'=1. \] Thus, \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=u'v+uv'=-6x^2(x+1)-2x^3. \] Expanding, \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=-6x^3-6x^2-2x^3=-8x^3-6x^2. \] --- **(c)** For \[ y=x^2(1-4x)^4, \] choose \[ u=x^2,\quad v=(1-4x)^4. \] Then, \[ u'=2x. \] Using the chain rule for \( v \), let \( w=1-4x \) so that \[ v=w^4,\quad \frac{dv}{dw}=4w^3,\quad \frac{dw}{dx}=-4. \] Thus, \[ v'=\frac{dv}{dx}=4(1-4x)^3\cdot (-4)=-16(1-4x)^3. \] Now, \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=2x(1-4x)^4-16x^2(1-4x)^3. \] Factor out the common terms \( 2x(1-4x)^3 \): \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=2x(1-4x)^3\Big[(1-4x)-8x\Big]=2x(1-4x)^3(1-12x). \] --- **(d)** For \[ y=x^2\sqrt{1-2x^2}, \] rewrite the square root as a power: \[ y=x^2(1-2x^2)^{\frac{1}{2}}. \] Let \[ u=x^2,\quad v=(1-2x^2)^{\frac{1}{2}}, \] so that \[ u'=2x. \] For \( v \), using the chain rule with \( w=1-2x^2 \): \[ v=w^{\frac{1}{2}},\quad \frac{dv}{dw}=\frac{1}{2}w^{-\frac{1}{2}},\quad \frac{dw}{dx}=-4x. \] Thus, \[ v'=\frac{1}{2}(1-2x^2)^{-\frac{1}{2}}(-4x)=-2x(1-2x^2)^{-\frac{1}{2}}. \] Apply the product rule: \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=2x(1-2x^2)^{\frac{1}{2}}-2x^3(1-2x^2)^{-\frac{1}{2}}. \] Factor out \( 2x(1-2x^2)^{-\frac{1}{2}} \): \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=2x(1-2x^2)^{-\frac{1}{2}}\Big[(1-2x^2)-x^2\Big]=2x(1-2x^2)^{-\frac{1}{2}}(1-3x^2). \] Alternatively, \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{2x(1-3x^2)}{\sqrt{1-2x^2}}. \] --- **(e)** For \[ y=(4x-3)(2x+7)^6, \] take \[ u=4x-3,\quad v=(2x+7)^6. \] Then, \[ u'=4, \] and for \( v \) (using the chain rule with \( w=2x+7 \)): \[ v= w^6,\quad \frac{dv}{dw}=6w^5,\quad \frac{dw}{dx}=2, \] so, \[ v'=6(2x+7)^5\cdot 2=12(2x+7)^5. \] By the product rule, \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=4(2x+7)^6+12(4x-3)(2x+7)^5. \] Factor out \( (2x+7)^5 \): \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=(2x+7)^5\Big[4(2x+7)+12(4x-3)\Big]. \] Simplify the bracket: \[ 4(2x+7)=8x+28,\quad 12(4x-3)=48x-36, \] so, \[ 8x+28+48x-36=56x-8=8(7x-1). \] Thus, \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=8(2x+7)^5(7x-1). \] --- **(f)** For \[ y=(x+5)^3(x-4)^4, \] let \[ u=(x+5)^3,\quad v=(x-4)^4. \] Then, \[ u'=3(x+5)^2,\quad v'=4(x-4)^3. \] Apply the product rule: \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=3(x+5)^2(x-4)^4+4(x+5)^3(x-4)^3. \] Factor out the common factor \( (x+5)^2(x-4)^3 \): \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=(x+5)^2(x-4)^3\Big[3(x-4)+4(x+5)\Big]. \] Simplify the bracket: \[ 3(x-4)=3x-12,\quad 4(x+5)=4x+20, \] so, \[ 3x-12+4x+20=7x+8. \] Thus, \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=(x+5)^2(x-4)^3(7x+8). \]

Bonus Knowledge

To find the derivative \( \frac{d y}{d x} \) of each function, we'll use the product rule, chain rule, and the power rule for differentiation. Let's dive right in: First Line: For (a) \( y=4 x^{2}(5 x+3) \), applying the product rule gives us \( \frac{d y}{d x} = 4x^2 \cdot 5 + 8x(5x + 3) = 20x^2 + 40x^2 + 24x = 60x^2 + 24x \). For (b) \( y=-2 x^{3}(x+1) \), we compute \( \frac{d y}{d x} = -2x^3 \cdot 1 + (-2)(3x^2)(x + 1) = -2x^3 - 6x^2 - 2x^2 = -2x^3 - 8x^2 \). Second Line: Moving on to (c) \( y=x^{2}(1-4 x)^{4} \), we apply the product and chain rules yielding \( \frac{d y}{d x} = 2x(1-4x)^{4} + x^2 \cdot 4(1-4x)^{3}(-4) = 2x(1-4x)^{4} - 16x^2(1-4x)^{3} \). For (d) \( y=x^{2} \sqrt{1-2 x^{2}} \), we write this as \( y=x^2(1-2x^2)^{1/2} \), using both product and chain rules leads to \( \frac{dy}{dx} = 2x\sqrt{1-2x^2} + x^2 \cdot \frac{1}{2}(1-2x^2)^{-1/2}(-4x) = 2x\sqrt{1-2x^2} - \frac{2x^3}{\sqrt{1-2x^2}} \). Third Line: For (e) \( y=(4 x-3)(2 x+7)^{6} \), applying the product rule leads to \( \frac{d y}{d x} = (4)(2x + 7)^{6} + (4x - 3)(6)(2x + 7)^{5}(2) = 8(2x + 7)^{5}((4x - 3) + 12) \). Similarly, for (f) \( y=(x+5)^{3}(x-4)^{4} \), we also use product rule giving \( \frac{d y}{d x} = 3(x+5)^{2}(x-4)^{4} + 4(x+5)^{3}(x-4)^{3} \). These calculations will give you the precise rates of change for each of the functions concerning \( x \)!
