Math Problem Statement

Solve

Solution

To solve this problem, we need to find the derivative of the given function y=(5x1)(2x+3)y = (5x - 1)(2x + 3) using the Product Rule. The Product Rule states that if y=uvy = uv, where uu and vv are functions of xx, then the derivative yy' is given by:

y=uv+uvy' = u'v + uv'

Step 1: Identify uu and vv

From the problem:

  • u=5x1u = 5x - 1
  • v=2x+3v = 2x + 3

Step 2: Find the derivatives uu' and vv'

  • u=ddx(5x1)u' = \frac{d}{dx}(5x - 1) u=5u' = 5
  • v=ddx(2x+3)v' = \frac{d}{dx}(2x + 3) v=2v' = 2

Step 3: Apply the Product Rule

y=uv+uvy' = u'v + uv' Substitute uu, uu', vv, and vv' into the equation: y=(5)(2x+3)+(5x1)(2)y' = (5)(2x + 3) + (5x - 1)(2)

Step 4: Simplify each term

  • First term: (5)(2x+3)(5)(2x + 3) (5)(2x+3)=10x+15(5)(2x + 3) = 10x + 15

  • Second term: (5x1)(2)(5x - 1)(2) (5x1)(2)=10x2(5x - 1)(2) = 10x - 2

Step 5: Combine like terms

y=10x+15+10x2=20x+13y' = 10x + 15 + 10x - 2 = 20x + 13

Final Answer

The derivative yy' is 20x+1320x + 13.
