Step-by-step solution

4 steps

To differentiate (xex)2(x e^x)^2, we will use the chain rule and the product rule.

  1. Rewrite the expression.

    Let y=(xex)2y = (x e^x)^2.
    We can also write this as y=x2(ex)2=x2e2xy = x^2 (e^x)^2 = x^2 e^{2x}.
    Let's use the form y=(xex)2y = (x e^x)^2 and apply the chain rule first.

  2. Apply the chain rule.

    The chain rule states that if y=[f(x)]ny = [f(x)]^n, then dydx=n[f(x)]n−1⋅f′(x)\frac{dy}{dx} = n[f(x)]^{n-1} \cdot f'(x).
    Here, f(x)=xexf(x) = x e^x and n=2n=2.

    dydx=2(xex)2−1⋅ddx(xex)\frac{dy}{dx} = 2(x e^x)^{2-1} \cdot \frac{d}{dx}(x e^x) dydx=2(xex)⋅ddx(xex)\frac{dy}{dx} = 2(x e^x) \cdot \frac{d}{dx}(x e^x)
  3. Apply the product rule to differentiate xexx e^x.

    The product rule states that if g(x)=u(x)v(x)g(x) = u(x)v(x), then g′(x)=u′(x)v(x)+u(x)v′(x)g'(x) = u'(x)v(x) + u(x)v'(x).
    Here, u(x)=xu(x) = x and v(x)=exv(x) = e^x.
    So, u′(x)=ddx(x)=1u'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(x) = 1.
    And v′(x)=ddx(ex)=exv'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(e^x) = e^x.
    Therefore,

    ddx(xex)=(1)(ex)+(x)(ex)\frac{d}{dx}(x e^x) = (1)(e^x) + (x)(e^x) ddx(xex)=ex+xex\frac{d}{dx}(x e^x) = e^x + x e^x ddx(xex)=ex(1+x)\frac{d}{dx}(x e^x) = e^x(1+x)
  4. Substitute the result from Step 3 back into the expression from Step 2 and simplify.

    dydx=2(xex)⋅[ex(1+x)]\frac{dy}{dx} = 2(x e^x) \cdot [e^x(1+x)] dydx=2xex⋅ex(1+x)\frac{dy}{dx} = 2x e^x \cdot e^x(1+x) dydx=2xex+x(1+x)\frac{dy}{dx} = 2x e^{x+x}(1+x) dydx=2xe2x(1+x)\frac{dy}{dx} = 2x e^{2x}(1+x)

    The final answer is 2xe2x(1+x)2x e^{2x}(1+x).
