Find the derivative of \(\displaystyle y = (6 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - 4 x - 4)(- 8 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - x + 9)(\log{\left(x \right)})\).


Identifying \(\displaystyle f=6 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - 4 x - 4\) and \(\displaystyle g=\left(- 8 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - x + 9\right) \log{\left(x \right)}\) and using the product rule with \(\displaystyle f=6 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - 4 x - 4 \implies f'=18 x^{2} - 12 x - 4\). This leaves g as \(\displaystyle g = \left(- 8 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - x + 9\right) \log{\left(x \right)}\) which also requires the product rule. Pushing down in the new product rule \(\displaystyle f=- 8 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - x + 9 \implies f'=- 24 x^{2} - 12 x - 1\) and \(\displaystyle g=\log{\left(x \right)} \implies g'=\frac{1}{x}\). Popping up a level gives \(\displaystyle g'=(\log{\left(x \right)})(- 24 x^{2} - 12 x - 1)+(- 8 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - x + 9)(\frac{1}{x})\)Popping up again (Back to the original problem) gives \(\displaystyle f'=(6 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - 4 x - 4)(\left(- 24 x^{2} - 12 x - 1\right) \log{\left(x \right)} + \frac{- 8 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - x + 9}{x})+(\left(- 8 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - x + 9\right) \log{\left(x \right)})(18 x^{2} - 12 x - 4)=\left(- 24 x^{2} - 12 x - 1\right) \left(6 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - 4 x - 4\right) \log{\left(x \right)} + \left(18 x^{2} - 12 x - 4\right) \left(- 8 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - x + 9\right) \log{\left(x \right)} + \frac{\left(- 8 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - x + 9\right) \left(6 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} - 4 x - 4\right)}{x}\)
