Step by step
- \frac{d}{dy}\left[x^{3} - 3 x y^{2}\right]
Differentiate 2 times, one derivative at a time.
- \frac{d}{d y} x^{3} + \frac{\partial}{\partial y} \left(- 3 x y^{2}\right)
Sum rule: differentiate term by term.
- \frac{\partial}{\partial y} \left(- 3 x y^{2}\right)
The derivative of a constant is 0.
- - 3 x \frac{d}{d y} y^{2}
Constant multiple rule: pull the constant out.
- - 6 x y
Power rule: (xⁿ)′ = n·xⁿ⁻¹ with n = 2.
- f^{(1)}(y) = - 6 x y
That is derivative number 1.
- - 6 x \frac{d}{d y} y
Constant multiple rule: pull the constant out.
- - 6 x
d/dx of x is 1.
- f^{(2)}(y) = - 6 x
That is derivative number 2.
