Solve 3y*2y

$$3 y \cdot 2 y$$

Evaluate

$$6y^{2}$$

Solution Steps

Multiply y and y to get y^{2}.

$$3y^{2}\times 2$$

Multiply 3 and 2 to get 6.

$$6y^{2}$$

Differentiate w.r.t. y

$$12y$$

Steps Using Definition of a Derivative

Multiply y and y to get y^{2}.

$$\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}y}(3y^{2}\times 2)$$

Multiply 3 and 2 to get 6.

$$\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}y}(6y^{2})$$

The derivative of ax^{n} is nax^{n-1}.

$$2\times 6y^{2-1}$$

Multiply 2 times 6.

$$12y^{2-1}$$

Subtract 1 from 2.

$$12y^{1}$$

For any term t, t^{1}=t.

$$12y$$
