Answer

$y'=e^{p}+\dfrac{3}{2}p^{1/2}e^{p}+pe^{p}+p^{3/2}e^{p}$

Work Step by Step

$y=e^{p}(p+p\sqrt{p})$ Rewrite the function like this: $y=e^{p}[p+(p)(p^{1/2})]=e^{p}(p+p^{3/2})$ Differentiate using the product rule $y'=(e^{p})(p+p^{3/2})'+(p+p^{3/2})(e^{p})'=...$ $...=(e^{p})(1+\dfrac{3}{2}p^{1/2})+(p+p^{3/2})(e^{p})=...$ Evaluate the products and simplify: $...=e^{p}+\dfrac{3}{2}p^{1/2}e^{p}+pe^{p}+p^{3/2}e^{p}$
