How do you find the derivative of #y=xe^x#? Calculus Differentiating Exponential Functions Differentiating Exponential Functions with Base e 1 Answer Andrea S. May 8, 2017 Using the product rule: #dy/dx = d/dx (xe^x) = x xx d/dx (e^x) + d/dx(x) xx e^x = xe^x+e^x = e^x(x+1)# Answer link Related questions What is the derivative of #y=3x^2e^(5x)# ?
