$\frac{d}{dx}\left(-x^3\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(5x^2\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(-8x\right)$
Learn how to solve sum rule of differentiation problems step by step online. Find the derivative d/dx(-x^3+5x^2-8x) using the sum rule. The derivative of a sum of two or more functions is the sum of the derivatives of each function. The derivative of the linear function times a constant, is equal to the constant. The derivative of the linear function is equal to 1. The derivative of a function multiplied by a constant is equal to the constant times the derivative of the function.
