Find the derivative of \(\displaystyle y = (7 x^{2} - 2 x - 2)(6 x^{2} - 5 x - 6)(8 x^{2} - 6 x - 1)\).
Identifying \(\displaystyle f=7 x^{2} - 2 x - 2\) and \(\displaystyle g=\left(6 x^{2} - 5 x - 6\right) \left(8 x^{2} - 6 x - 1\right)\) and using the product rule with \(\displaystyle f=7 x^{2} - 2 x - 2 \implies f'=14 x - 2\). This leaves g as \(\displaystyle g = \left(6 x^{2} - 5 x - 6\right) \left(8 x^{2} - 6 x - 1\right)\) which also requires the product rule. Pushing down in the new product rule \(\displaystyle f=6 x^{2} - 5 x - 6 \implies f'=12 x - 5\) and \(\displaystyle g=8 x^{2} - 6 x - 1 \implies g'=16 x - 6\). Popping up a level gives \(\displaystyle g'=(8 x^{2} - 6 x - 1)(12 x - 5)+(6 x^{2} - 5 x - 6)(16 x - 6)\)Popping up again (Back to the original problem) gives \(\displaystyle f'=(7 x^{2} - 2 x - 2)(\left(12 x - 5\right) \left(8 x^{2} - 6 x - 1\right) + \left(16 x - 6\right) \left(6 x^{2} - 5 x - 6\right))+(\left(6 x^{2} - 5 x - 6\right) \left(8 x^{2} - 6 x - 1\right))(14 x - 2)=\left(12 x - 5\right) \left(7 x^{2} - 2 x - 2\right) \left(8 x^{2} - 6 x - 1\right) + \left(14 x - 2\right) \left(6 x^{2} - 5 x - 6\right) \left(8 x^{2} - 6 x - 1\right) + \left(16 x - 6\right) \left(6 x^{2} - 5 x - 6\right) \left(7 x^{2} - 2 x - 2\right)\)
