Examine the original function f(x) = (3x + 2)(x – 1)
It is a product of two functions. What are they?
g(x) = and h(x) =
Since f(x) = g(x) h(x) does f /(x) g /(x) h /(x) ?

We can derive this function another way as shown below. Where do the parts come from?
When we expanded, we determined the derivative to be

To differentiate a function f(x) which is the product of two functions g(x) and h(x) you……
Multiply the first function by the derivative of the second function
then add
The product of the second function and the derivative of the first
If f(x) = g(x)h(x), then

f(x) = g(x)h(x) f /(x) = g(x) h /(x) + h(x) g /(x)
Example 1 Differentiate f(x) = x2 sin x
Let g(x) = and h(x) =
g /(x) = h /(x) =
f /(x) = In its simplest form:
f /(x) =
