The product rule

The product of two differentiable funcations f and g is itself differentiable. Moreover, the derivative of fg is the first function times the derivative of the 2nd plus the 2nd fuction times the derivative of the 1st

y' of y = u x v u & v representing different fuctions like --> (x-3)(x+7)

y' = uv' + u'v

Example 1: Find y' of y=(2x7)(7x2+8)

    remember: y' = uv' + u'v
              y=(2x7)[(7*2)x]+(2)(7x2+8) product rule
              =(2x7)(14x)+2(7x2+8) simplify
              =42x298x+16
