Find the derivative of \(\displaystyle y = (7 x - 4)(7 - 5 x)(e^{x})\).


Identifying \(\displaystyle f=7 x - 4\) and \(\displaystyle g=\left(7 - 5 x\right) e^{x}\) and using the product rule with \(\displaystyle f=7 x - 4 \implies f'=7\). This leaves g as \(\displaystyle g = \left(7 - 5 x\right) e^{x}\) which also requires the product rule. Pushing down in the new product rule \(\displaystyle f=7 - 5 x \implies f'=-5\) and \(\displaystyle g=e^{x} \implies g'=e^{x}\). Popping up a level gives \(\displaystyle g'=(e^{x})(-5)+(7 - 5 x)(e^{x})\)Popping up again (Back to the original problem) gives \(\displaystyle f'=(7 x - 4)(\left(7 - 5 x\right) e^{x} - 5 e^{x})+(\left(7 - 5 x\right) e^{x})(7)=\left(7 - 5 x\right) \left(7 x - 4\right) e^{x} + \left(20 - 35 x\right) e^{x} + \left(49 - 35 x\right) e^{x}\)
