Find the Derivative - d/dx 3x+5

Problem

d()/d(x)*(3*x+5)

Solution

  1. Apply the sum rule for derivatives, which states that the derivative of a sum is the sum of the derivatives.

d()/d(x)*(3*x+5)=(d(3)*x)/d(x)+d(5)/d(x)

  1. Apply the constant multiple rule to the first term, moving the constant 3 outside the derivative.

(d(3)*x)/d(x)=3d(x)/d(x)

  1. Differentiate the variable x with respect to x which equals 1

3*(1)=3

  1. Differentiate the constant 5 The derivative of any constant is 0

d(5)/d(x)=0

  1. Combine the results to find the final derivative.

3+0=3

Final Answer

d()/d(x)*(3*x+5)=3
