Question
Differentiate the following function with respect to x:

$\text{x}^{-3}(5+\text{3x})$

Answer

Let $\text{u}=\text{x}^{-3};\text{v}=(5+\text{3x})$

Then, $\text{u}'=-\text{3x}^{-4};\text{v}'=3$

Using the product rule:

$\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{uv})=\text{uv}'+\text{vu}'$

$\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}[\text{x}^{-3}(5+\text{3x})]=\text{x}^{-3}.3+(5+\text{3x})(-3\text{x}^{-4})$

$=\text{3x}^{-3}-\text{15x}^{-4}-\text{9x}^{-3}$

$=-\text{15x}^{-4}-\text{6x}^{-3}$
