Find the derivative of \(\displaystyle y = \left(- 3 x - 6\right) e^{x}\).
Using the product rule with \(\displaystyle f = e^{x}\), \(\displaystyle f' = e^{x}\), \(\displaystyle g = - 3 x - 6\), and \(\displaystyle g'= -3\) gives:
\begin{equation*} y' = (- 3 x - 6)(e^{x}) + (e^{x})(-3) = \left(- 3 x - 6\right) e^{x} - 3 e^{x} \end{equation*}
