Step 1.1.1

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 $f (x) = x^{2}$ and $g (x) = 114 - 4 x$ .

$x^{2} \frac{d}{d x} [114 - 4 x] + (114 - 4 x) \frac{d}{d x} [x^{2}]$

Step 1.1.2.1

By the Sum Rule, the derivative of $114 - 4 x$ with respect to $x$ is $\frac{d}{d x} [114] + \frac{d}{d x} [- 4 x]$ .

$x^{2} (\frac{d}{d x} [114] + \frac{d}{d x} [- 4 x]) + (114 - 4 x) \frac{d}{d x} [x^{2}]$

Step 1.1.2.2

Since $114$ is constant with respect to $x$ , the derivative of $114$ with respect to $x$ is $0$ .

$x^{2} (0 + \frac{d}{d x} [- 4 x]) + (114 - 4 x) \frac{d}{d x} [x^{2}]$

Step 1.1.2.3

Add $0$ and $\frac{d}{d x} [- 4 x]$ .

$x^{2} \frac{d}{d x} [- 4 x] + (114 - 4 x) \frac{d}{d x} [x^{2}]$

Step 1.1.2.4

Since $- 4$ is constant with respect to $x$ , the derivative of $- 4 x$ with respect to $x$ is $- 4 \frac{d}{d x} [x]$ .

$x^{2} (- 4 \frac{d}{d x} [x]) + (114 - 4 x) \frac{d}{d x} [x^{2}]$

Step 1.1.2.5

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

$x^{2} (- 4 \cdot 1) + (114 - 4 x) \frac{d}{d x} [x^{2}]$
