Find the derivative of \(\displaystyle y = (2 x + 5)(6 x + 8)(3 - 9 x)\).
Identifying \(\displaystyle f=2 x + 5\) and \(\displaystyle g=\left(3 - 9 x\right) \left(6 x + 8\right)\) and using the product rule with \(\displaystyle f=2 x + 5 \implies f'=2\). This leaves g as \(\displaystyle g = \left(3 - 9 x\right) \left(6 x + 8\right)\) which also requires the product rule. Pushing down in the new product rule \(\displaystyle f=6 x + 8 \implies f'=6\) and \(\displaystyle g=3 - 9 x \implies g'=-9\). Popping up a level gives \(\displaystyle g'=(3 - 9 x)(6)+(6 x + 8)(-9)\)Popping up again (Back to the original problem) gives \(\displaystyle f'=(2 x + 5)(- 108 x - 54)+(\left(3 - 9 x\right) \left(6 x + 8\right))(2)=6 \left(3 - 9 x\right) \left(2 x + 5\right) + \left(6 - 18 x\right) \left(6 x + 8\right) + \left(- 18 x - 45\right) \left(6 x + 8\right)\)
