Step-by-step Solution

Specify the solving method

1

Apply the product rule for differentiation: $(f\cdot g)'=f'\cdot g+f\cdot g'$, where $f=\left(2x+1\right)^5$ and $g=\left(x^4-3\right)^6$

$\frac{d}{dx}\left(\left(2x+1\right)^5\right)\left(x^4-3\right)^6+\left(2x+1\right)^5\frac{d}{dx}\left(\left(x^4-3\right)^6\right)$
2

The power rule for differentiation states that if $n$ is a real number and $f(x) = x^n$, then $f'(x) = nx^{n-1}$

$5\left(2x+1\right)^{4}\frac{d}{dx}\left(2x+1\right)\left(x^4-3\right)^6+\left(2x+1\right)^5\frac{d}{dx}\left(\left(x^4-3\right)^6\right)$
3

The power rule for differentiation states that if $n$ is a real number and $f(x) = x^n$, then $f'(x) = nx^{n-1}$

$5\left(2x+1\right)^{4}\frac{d}{dx}\left(2x+1\right)\left(x^4-3\right)^6+6\left(2x+1\right)^5\left(x^4-3\right)^{5}\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^4-3\right)$
4

The derivative of a sum of two or more functions is the sum of the derivatives of each function

$5\left(2x+1\right)^{4}\left(\frac{d}{dx}\left(2x\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(1\right)\right)\left(x^4-3\right)^6+6\left(2x+1\right)^5\left(x^4-3\right)^{5}\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^4-3\right)$
5

The derivative of a sum of two or more functions is the sum of the derivatives of each function

$5\left(2x+1\right)^{4}\left(\frac{d}{dx}\left(2x\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(1\right)\right)\left(x^4-3\right)^6+6\left(2x+1\right)^5\left(x^4-3\right)^{5}\left(\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^4\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(-3\right)\right)$
6

The derivative of the constant function ($1$) is equal to zero

$5\left(2x+1\right)^{4}\frac{d}{dx}\left(2x\right)\left(x^4-3\right)^6+6\left(2x+1\right)^5\left(x^4-3\right)^{5}\left(\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^4\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(-3\right)\right)$
7

The derivative of the constant function ($-3$) is equal to zero

$5\left(2x+1\right)^{4}\frac{d}{dx}\left(2x\right)\left(x^4-3\right)^6+6\left(2x+1\right)^5\left(x^4-3\right)^{5}\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^4\right)$
8

The derivative of the linear function times a constant, is equal to the constant

$10\left(2x+1\right)^{4}\frac{d}{dx}\left(x\right)\left(x^4-3\right)^6+6\left(2x+1\right)^5\left(x^4-3\right)^{5}\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^4\right)$
9

The derivative of the linear function is equal to $1$

$10\left(2x+1\right)^{4}\left(x^4-3\right)^6+6\left(2x+1\right)^5\left(x^4-3\right)^{5}\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^4\right)$
10

The power rule for differentiation states that if $n$ is a real number and $f(x) = x^n$, then $f'(x) = nx^{n-1}$

$10\left(2x+1\right)^{4}\left(x^4-3\right)^6+24\left(2x+1\right)^5\left(x^4-3\right)^{5}x^{3}$

Final Answer

$10\left(2x+1\right)^{4}\left(x^4-3\right)^6+24\left(2x+1\right)^5\left(x^4-3\right)^{5}x^{3}$
