Homework Statement
[tex]\frac{d}{dx}e^{ax^{3}}[/tex]
I'm simply trying to determine whether or not I am doing these correctly and applying the chain rule properly.

Chain rule et al.
The Attempt at a Solution
[itex]\frac{d}{dx}e^{ax^{3}}[/itex]
[itex]e^{ax^{3}}\frac{d}{dx}ax^{3}[/itex]
[itex]e^{ax^{3}}a(3)x^{2}[/itex]
[itex]3ae^{ax^{3}}x^{2}[/itex]
Does that look right to you? I am assuming "a" is just some constant, the book does not specify.
