$\frac{d}{dx}\left(25x^2\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(-16x^4\right)$
Learn how to solve differential calculus problems step by step online. Find the derivative of 25x^2-16x^4. The derivative of a sum of two or more functions is the sum of the derivatives of each function. The derivative of a function multiplied by a constant (-16) is equal to the constant times the derivative of the function. The power rule for differentiation states that if n is a real number and f(x) = x^n, then f'(x) = nx^{n-1}. Subtract the values 4 and -1.
