Can I please get some feedback on this one

Differentiate in respect to x
Y=5e³x — 8e - ²×
So I get 15e³× —8e-²×
15e³× — - 16e-²×
I think it should be + not minus?
15e³× + 16e-²×

Your problems are not posting correctly. I think your assignment is:

Differentiate in respect to x
Y=5e^3x - 8e^-2x

You should post it as:

Y = 5*e^(3x) - 8*e^(-2x)

and you are correct - the answer should be written as:

Y' = 15*e^(3x) + 16*e^(-2x)................................[because (-)(-) \(\displaystyle \to \ +\)]

So your work is correct and the answer should come with '+' , as you had suspected.

Y=5e³x - 8e^-2 ×

Then Y' = 5e³ - 8e^-2
