Advice

$\simplify[std]{f(x) = e^({a}x^{m} +{b}x^2+{c})}$
The chain rule says that if $f(x)=g(h(x))$ then

$\simplify[std]{f'(x) = h'(x)g'(h(x))}$
One way to find

$f'(x)$ is to let

$u=h(x)$ then we have

$f(u)=g(u)$ as a function of

$u$ .
Then we use the chain rule in the form:

$\frac{df}{dx} = \frac{du}{dx}\frac{df(u)}{du}$
Once you have worked this out, you replace

$u$ by

$h(x)$ and your answer is now in terms of

$x$ .

For this example, we let $u=\simplify[std]{{a}x^{m} +{b}x^2+{c}}$ and we have $f(u)=\simplify[std]{e^u}$ .
This gives

$\begin{eqnarray*}\frac{du}{dx} &=& \simplify[std]{{a*m}x^{m-1} +{2*b}x}\\ \frac{df(u)}{du} &=& \simplify[std]{e^u} \end{eqnarray*}$

Hence on substituting into the chain rule above we get:

$\begin{eqnarray*}\frac{df}{dx} &=& \simplify[std]{({a*m}x^{m-1} +{2*b}x) * (e^u)}\\ &=& \simplify[std]{({a*m}x^{m-1} +{2*b}x)*e^({a}x^{m} +{b}x^2+{c})} \end{eqnarray*}$
on replacing

$u$ by

$\simplify[std]{{a}x^{m} +{b}x^2+{c}}$ .
