Find the derivative of \(\displaystyle y = (9 - 7 x)(- 6 x - 4)(- 7 x - 9)\).
Identifying \(\displaystyle f=9 - 7 x\) and \(\displaystyle g=\left(- 7 x - 9\right) \left(- 6 x - 4\right)\) and using the product rule with \(\displaystyle f=9 - 7 x \implies f'=-7\). This leaves g as \(\displaystyle g = \left(- 7 x - 9\right) \left(- 6 x - 4\right)\) which also requires the product rule. Pushing down in the new product rule \(\displaystyle f=- 6 x - 4 \implies f'=-6\) and \(\displaystyle g=- 7 x - 9 \implies g'=-7\). Popping up a level gives \(\displaystyle g'=(- 7 x - 9)(-6)+(- 6 x - 4)(-7)\)Popping up again (Back to the original problem) gives \(\displaystyle f'=(9 - 7 x)(84 x + 82)+(\left(- 7 x - 9\right) \left(- 6 x - 4\right))(-7)=\left(9 - 7 x\right) \left(42 x + 28\right) + \left(9 - 7 x\right) \left(42 x + 54\right) - 7 \left(- 7 x - 9\right) \left(- 6 x - 4\right)\)
