Apply the rule:

\n

\\(y=ax^n\\,\\,\\,then\\,\\,\\,\\frac{dy}{dx}=nax^{n-1}\\)

\n

In this example

\n

\\(y=\\var{a1}x^{\\var{a2}}+\\var{b1}x^{\\var{b2}}+\\var{c1}\\)

\n

\\(\\frac{dy}{dx}=\\var{a2}*\\var{a1}x^{\\var{a2}-1}+\\var{b2}*\\var{b1}x^{\\var{b2}-1}\\)

\n

\\(\\frac{dy}{dx}=\\simplify{{a2}*{a1}x^{{a2}-1}+{b2}*{b1}x^{{b2}-1}}\\)
