thanks for assisting, but I have no idea where to start on this type of problem.

ok I will put it in simple form:

(2x^2 - 3x + 1)(4x^3 + 4x -3)^5
a = (2x^2 - 3x + 1) b = (4x^3 + 4x -3)^5
so a*b

using product rule

a*db/dx + da/dx*b

and now
as b = (4x^3 + 4x -3)^5
make this b = (u)^5
so . db/dx = 5u^4.du/dx ...
