31
<p>Here, we have f(x) = e^6x · x^3. Using the product rule, f'(x) = u'v + uv' In the given equation, u = e^6x and v = x^3.</p>
33
<p>Let's differentiate each term: u' = d/dx (e^6x) = 6e^6x v' = d/dx (x^3) = 3x^2</p>
32
<p>Let's differentiate each term: u' = d/dx (e^6x) = 6e^6x v' = d/dx (x^3) = 3x^2</p>
34
<p>Substituting into the product rule, f'(x) = (6e^6x)(x^3) + (e^6x)(3x^2) = 6x^3e^6x + 3x^2e^6x</p>
33
<p>Substituting into the product rule, f'(x) = (6e^6x)(x^3) + (e^6x)(3x^2) = 6x^3e^6x + 3x^2e^6x</p>
35
<p>Thus, the derivative of the specified function is 6x^3e^6x + 3x^2e^6x.</p>

68
<p>To differentiate the function, use the quotient rule: d/dx (e^6x/x) = (d/dx (e^6x) · x - e^6x · d/dx (x))/x²</p>
70
<p>Substitute d/dx (e^6x) = 6e^6x and d/dx (x) = 1: = (6e^6x · x - e^6x · 1)/x² = (6xe^6x - e^6x)/x² = e^6x(6x - 1)/x².</p>
