Q. Given the function \newlinef(x)=4(x29x+3)5,f(x)=4(-x^{2}-9x+3)^{5}, find \newlinef(x)f^{\prime}(x) in any form.
  1. Identify Functions: We need to find the derivative of the function f(x)=4(x29x+3)5f(x)=4(-x^2-9x+3)^5. This requires the use of the chain rule, which states that the derivative of a composite function is the derivative of the outer function evaluated at the inner function times the derivative of the inner function.
  2. Find Derivatives: First, let's identify the outer function and the inner function. The outer function is g(u)=4u5g(u)=4u^5 and the inner function is u(x)=x29x+3u(x)=-x^2-9x+3. We will need to find g(u)g'(u) and u(x)u'(x).
  3. Apply Chain Rule: The derivative of the outer function g(u)=4u5g(u)=4u^5 with respect to uu is g(u)=20u4g'(u)=20u^4.
  4. Simplify Expression: The derivative of the inner function u(x)=x29x+3u(x)=-x^2-9x+3 with respect to xx is u(x)=2x9u'(x)=-2x-9.
  5. Final Derivative: Now we apply the chain rule. The derivative of f(x)f(x) with respect to xx is f(x)=g(u(x))u(x)f'(x)=g'(u(x)) \cdot u'(x). Substituting the derivatives we found, we get f(x)=20(x29x+3)4(2x9)f'(x)=20(-x^2-9x+3)^4 \cdot (-2x-9).
  6. Final Derivative: Now we apply the chain rule. The derivative of f(x)f(x) with respect to xx is f(x)=g(u(x))u(x)f'(x)=g'(u(x)) \cdot u'(x). Substituting the derivatives we found, we get f(x)=20(x29x+3)4(2x9)f'(x)=20(-x^2-9x+3)^4 \cdot (-2x-9).Simplify the expression for f(x)f'(x) by distributing the 2020 into the term (2x9)(-2x-9). This gives us f(x)=20(2x9)(x29x+3)4f'(x)=20 \cdot (-2x-9) \cdot (-x^2-9x+3)^4.
  7. Final Derivative: Now we apply the chain rule. The derivative of f(x)f(x) with respect to xx is f(x)=g(u(x))u(x)f'(x)=g'(u(x)) \cdot u'(x). Substituting the derivatives we found, we get f(x)=20(x29x+3)4(2x9)f'(x)=20(-x^2-9x+3)^4 \cdot (-2x-9).Simplify the expression for f(x)f'(x) by distributing the 2020 into the term (2x9)(-2x-9). This gives us f(x)=20(2x9)(x29x+3)4f'(x)=20 \cdot (-2x-9) \cdot (-x^2-9x+3)^4.The final form of the derivative is f(x)=40x(x29x+3)4180(x29x+3)4f'(x)=-40x(-x^2-9x+3)^4 - 180(-x^2-9x+3)^4. This is the derivative of the function f(x)f(x) in any form.
