How do you differentiate y= (8/x^3)((x + x^7)/5)y=(8x3)(x+x75)? Calculus Basic Differentiation Rules Product Rule 1 Answer Shwetank Mauria Jun 22, 2016 (dy)/(dx)=-16/(5x^3)+32/5x^3dydx=−165x3+325x3 Explanation: The function y=(8/x^3)((x+x^7)/5)y=(8x3)(x+x75) = 8/5xx((x+x^7)/x^3)85×(x+x7x3) = 8/5xx(x/x^3+x^7/x^3)85×(xx3+x7x3) = 8/5xx(1/x^2+x^4)85×(1x2+x4) Hence (dy)/(dx)=8/5xx((-2)/x^3+4x^3)dydx=85×(−2x3+4x3) or (dy)/(dx)=-16/(5x^3)+32/5x^3dydx=−165x3+325x3 Answer link Related questions What is the Product Rule for derivatives?
