My problem is to find the derivative of the following function:
f(x) = 3(sqrt) (sqrt of x+1).....where first term is x to the 1/3 power rewritten.
In finding the derivative, the first step given is x to the 1/3 power times (x to the 1/2 power + 3) which I understand.
The next step given is x to the 5/6 power + 3x to the 1/3 power. I understand how you get 3x to the 1/3 power but not x to the 5/6 power (product of x to the 1/3 power and x to the 1/2 power). Can someone explain? Thank you.
