do u mean 1) [6(x)^-2]*[5(x)^7] ? or 2) [6(x)^-2] , 3) [5(x)^7]
then the ans is 1) -150(x)^-6.....
2) -12(x)^-3
3) 35(x)^6

i got 30 times the square root of x plus 16 all over the square root of x.

The people that answerd your questions either assumed that f(x) was wrong or they just cant derive. My appoligies for their stupidity.

Assume f(x) = u(x)*v(x)

product rule states that f'(x) =(u)*(dv/dx)+(v)*(du/dx)

okay so lets say..
u(x) = 6*x^0.5 - 2
v(x) = 5*x^0.5 - 7

plug in u(x) and v(x) into the equation above derives:

f'(x) = 30+16x^-0.5

if by this you mean

f(x) = (6sqrt(x) - 2)(5sqrt(x) + 7)

(d/dx)(f(x)) = f'(x)*g(x) + f(x)g(x)'

f'(x) = (3(x^((1/2) - 1))(5sqrt(x) + 7) + (6sqrt(x) - 2)((5/2)x^((1/2) - 1))

f'(x) = ((3(5sqrt(x) + 7))/(sqrt(x)) + (((5/2)(6sqrt(x) - 2))/(sqrt(x))

f'(x) = (15sqrt(x) + 21)/(sqrt(x)) + (15sqrt(x) - 5)/(sqrt(x))

f'(x) = (15sqrt(x) + 21 + 15sqrt(x) - 5)/(sqrt(x))

f'(x) = (30sqrt(x) + 16)/(sqrt(x))

f'(x) = ((sqrt(x))(30sqrt(x) + 16))/x

f'(x) = (30x + 16sqrt(x))/x

f(x)=(6 sqrt(x)-2)(5 sqrt(x) + 7)

Let
f(x)=g(x)h(x)

where
g(x)=(6 sqrt(x)-2)
g'(x)= 3/sqrt(x)

h(x)=5 sqrt(x) + 7
h'(x)=2.5/sqrt(x)

f'(x)=g'(x)h(x)+g(x)h'(x)
=>
f'(x)=
3*(5 sqrt(x)+7)/sqrt(x)+2.5*(6 sqrt(x)-2)/sqrt(x)=
{15sqrt(x)+21+15sqrt(x)-5}/sqrt(x)=
(30sqrt(x)+16)/sqrt(x)
=====
NOTE
deriv of sqrt(x)= (1/2)/sqrt(x)
Note sqrt(x)=x^.5
so derivative
is .5 x^(0.5-1)=.5x^(-0.5)
=.5/sqrt(x)
keyboard is hard to show, it's easier with Math symbols.

if you mean d/dx(6sqrt(x^-2))(5sqrt(x)+7)
then the dirivative is

(-3abs(1/x)(5sqrt(x) + 14))/x
