$f (x) = (11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22) e^{x}$

Step 1

Differentiate using the Product Rule which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [f (x) g (x)]$ is $f (x) \frac{d}{d x} [g (x)] + g (x) \frac{d}{d x} [f (x)]$ where $f (x) = 11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22$ and $g (x) = e^{x}$ .

$(11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22) \frac{d}{d x} [e^{x}] + e^{x} \frac{d}{d x} [11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22]$

Step 2

Differentiate using the Exponential Rule which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [a^{x}]$ is $a^{x} \ln (a)$ where $a$ = $e$ .

$(11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22) e^{x} + e^{x} \frac{d}{d x} [11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22]$

Step 3.1

By the Sum Rule, the derivative of $11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22$ with respect to $x$ is $\frac{d}{d x} [11 x^{2}] + \frac{d}{d x} [- 22 x] + \frac{d}{d x} [22]$ .

$(11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22) e^{x} + e^{x} (\frac{d}{d x} [11 x^{2}] + \frac{d}{d x} [- 22 x] + \frac{d}{d x} [22])$

Step 3.2

Since $11$ is constant with respect to $x$ , the derivative of $11 x^{2}$ with respect to $x$ is $11 \frac{d}{d x} [x^{2}]$ .

$(11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22) e^{x} + e^{x} (11 \frac{d}{d x} [x^{2}] + \frac{d}{d x} [- 22 x] + \frac{d}{d x} [22])$

Step 3.3

Differentiate using the Power Rule which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [x^{n}]$ is $n x^{n - 1}$ where $n = 2$ .

$(11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22) e^{x} + e^{x} (11 (2 x) + \frac{d}{d x} [- 22 x] + \frac{d}{d x} [22])$

Step 3.4

Multiply $2$ by $11$ .

$(11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22) e^{x} + e^{x} (22 x + \frac{d}{d x} [- 22 x] + \frac{d}{d x} [22])$

Step 3.5

Since $- 22$ is constant with respect to $x$ , the derivative of $- 22 x$ with respect to $x$ is $- 22 \frac{d}{d x} [x]$ .

$(11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22) e^{x} + e^{x} (22 x - 22 \frac{d}{d x} [x] + \frac{d}{d x} [22])$

Step 3.6

Differentiate using the Power Rule which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [x^{n}]$ is $n x^{n - 1}$ where $n = 1$ .

$(11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22) e^{x} + e^{x} (22 x - 22 \cdot 1 + \frac{d}{d x} [22])$

Step 3.7

Multiply $- 22$ by $1$ .

$(11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22) e^{x} + e^{x} (22 x - 22 + \frac{d}{d x} [22])$

Step 3.8

Since $22$ is constant with respect to $x$ , the derivative of $22$ with respect to $x$ is $0$ .

$(11 x^{2} - 22 x + 22) e^{x} + e^{x} (22 x - 22 + 0)$

Step 3.9

Add $22 x - 22$ and $0$ .
