Here are the differentiations for the given functions.

  1. Differentiate y=x5y = x^5.

    Using the power rule ddx(xn)=nxn−1\frac{d}{dx}(x^n) = nx^{n-1}:

    dydx=5x5−1\frac{dy}{dx} = 5x^{5-1} dydx=5x4\frac{dy}{dx} = 5x^4 dydx=5x4\boxed{\frac{dy}{dx} = 5x^4}
  2. Differentiate y=2x3y = 2x^3.

    Using the constant multiple rule ddx(cf(x))=cddx(f(x))\frac{d}{dx}(cf(x)) = c\frac{d}{dx}(f(x)) and the power rule:

    dydx=2⋅(3x3−1)\frac{dy}{dx} = 2 \cdot (3x^{3-1}) dydx=2⋅3x2\frac{dy}{dx} = 2 \cdot 3x^2 dydx=6x2\frac{dy}{dx} = 6x^2 dydx=6x2\boxed{\frac{dy}{dx} = 6x^2}
  3. Differentiate y=3x2+2x+5y = 3x^2 + 2x + 5.

    Using the sum rule ddx(f(x)+g(x))=ddx(f(x))+ddx(g(x))\frac{d}{dx}(f(x) + g(x)) = \frac{d}{dx}(f(x)) + \frac{d}{dx}(g(x)) and the power rule, and the rule for a constant ddx(c)=0\frac{d}{dx}(c) = 0:

    dydx=ddx(3x2)+ddx(2x)+ddx(5)\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx}(3x^2) + \frac{d}{dx}(2x) + \frac{d}{dx}(5) dydx=3⋅(2x2−1)+2⋅(1x1−1)+0\frac{dy}{dx} = 3 \cdot (2x^{2-1}) + 2 \cdot (1x^{1-1}) + 0 dydx=6x1+2x0\frac{dy}{dx} = 6x^1 + 2x^0 dydx=6x+2⋅1\frac{dy}{dx} = 6x + 2 \cdot 1 dydx=6x+2\frac{dy}{dx} = 6x + 2 dydx=6x+2\boxed{\frac{dy}{dx} = 6x + 2}
