(\partial)/(\partial x)(x^4+x^2y)

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x^{4} + x^{2} y)

4 x^{3} + 2 y x

Solution steps

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x^{4} + x^{2} y)

Treat

y

as a constant

Apply the Sum/Difference Rule:

(f \pm g)^{'} = f^{'} \pm g^{'}

= \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x^{4}) + \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x^{2} y)

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x^{4}) = 4 x^{3}

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x^{2} y) = 2 y x

= 4 x^{3} + 2 y x
