$y = 87 x e^{x^{2}}$

Step 1

Since $87$ is constant with respect to $x$ , the derivative of $87 x e^{x^{2}}$ with respect to $x$ is $87 \frac{d}{d x} [x e^{x^{2}}]$ .

$87 \frac{d}{d x} [x e^{x^{2}}]$

Step 2

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 $f (x) = x$ and $g (x) = e^{x^{2}}$ .

$87 (x \frac{d}{d x} [e^{x^{2}}] + e^{x^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} [x])$

Step 3

Differentiate using the chain rule, which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [f (g (x))]$ is $f' (g (x)) g' (x)$ where $f (x) = e^{x}$ and $g (x) = x^{2}$ .

Step 3.1

To apply the Chain Rule, set $u$ as $x^{2}$ .

$87 (x (\frac{d}{d u} [e^{u}] \frac{d}{d x} [x^{2}]) + e^{x^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} [x])$

Step 3.2

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

$87 (x (e^{u} \frac{d}{d x} [x^{2}]) + e^{x^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} [x])$

Step 3.3

Replace all occurrences of $u$ with $x^{2}$ .

$87 (x (e^{x^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} [x^{2}]) + e^{x^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} [x])$

Step 4

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

$87 (x (e^{x^{2}} (2 x)) + e^{x^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} [x])$

Step 5

Raise $x$ to the power of $1$ .

$87 (x^{1} x (e^{x^{2}} \cdot (2)) + e^{x^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} [x])$

Step 6

Raise $x$ to the power of $1$ .

$87 (x^{1} x^{1} (e^{x^{2}} \cdot (2)) + e^{x^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} [x])$

Step 7

Use the power rule $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$ to combine exponents.

$87 (x^{1 + 1} (e^{x^{2}} \cdot (2)) + e^{x^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} [x])$
