Find dy/dx when y = (3x - 1)^10

The question is asking us to find the first derivative of the function (y) with respect to x terms.y = (3x -1)^10We start by taking the superscript 10 down to the front, and multiply this by the 3 (as per standard differentiation), and then take one off the power:y = 10*3 (3x - 1)^9y = 30(3x - 1)^9
