Find the derivative dy/dx

The image contains a handwritten mathematical expression and a task. The expression is:

\[ y = 5x^3 - 2\sqrt{x} + x^{\frac{1}{3}} - 10 \]

The task is:

"Find derivative (dy/dx)"

To solve this, apply the rules of differentiation to each term separately:

- The derivative of \(5x^3\) is \(15x^2\).
- The derivative of \(-2\sqrt{x}\) is \(-2 \cdot \frac{1}{2}x^{-\frac{1}{2}} = -x^{-\frac{1}{2}}\).
- The derivative of \(x^{\frac{1}{3}}\) is \(\frac{1}{3}x^{-\frac{2}{3}}\).
- The derivative of the constant \(-10\) is \(0\).

Thus, the derivative \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) is:

\[ \frac{dy}{dx} = 15x^2 - x^{-\frac{1}{2}} + \frac{1}{3}x^{-\frac{2}{3}} \]

This transcription and explanation can be used to guide students through the process of finding the derivative of a polynomial and radical expression.
