In Reply to: 2 more derivative questions - please help posted by Marilyn on September 28, 2002 at 19:03:10:
1. Yes, just multiply out and it should be straightforward.
2. try separating to x^3/(x+3) - 2/(x+3) then use the product or division rule...

: Can you help with the following 2 problems?
:
: 1) Find the derivative if y=(3x^5 - 7x + 5)(x^3 + x -1) Do I just multiply it out?
:
: 2) Find the derivative if f(x) = x^3 - 2/x + 3
