Find the derivative of \(\displaystyle y = (2 x + 3)(7 x - 7)(5 - 6 x)\).


Identifying \(\displaystyle f=2 x + 3\) and \(\displaystyle g=\left(5 - 6 x\right) \left(7 x - 7\right)\) and using the product rule with \(\displaystyle f=2 x + 3 \implies f'=2\). This leaves g as \(\displaystyle g = \left(5 - 6 x\right) \left(7 x - 7\right)\) which also requires the product rule. Pushing down in the new product rule \(\displaystyle f=7 x - 7 \implies f'=7\) and \(\displaystyle g=5 - 6 x \implies g'=-6\). Popping up a level gives \(\displaystyle g'=(5 - 6 x)(7)+(7 x - 7)(-6)\)Popping up again (Back to the original problem) gives \(\displaystyle f'=(2 x + 3)(77 - 84 x)+(\left(5 - 6 x\right) \left(7 x - 7\right))(2)=\left(5 - 6 x\right) \left(14 x - 14\right) + \left(5 - 6 x\right) \left(14 x + 21\right) - 6 \left(2 x + 3\right) \left(7 x - 7\right)\)
