Answer

Explanation:

Step1: First find the product of F(x) and S(x)

$F(x)S(x)=(x^{4}+1)x^{6}=x^{10}+x^{6}$

Step2: Apply the power - rule for differentiation

The power - rule states that if $y = x^{n}$, then $y^\prime=nx^{n - 1}$. For $y=x^{10}+x^{6}$, the derivative $y^\prime=(x^{10})^\prime+(x^{6})^\prime$. $(x^{10})^\prime = 10x^{9}$ and $(x^{6})^\prime=6x^{5}$. So, $y^\prime = 10x^{9}+6x^{5}$

Answer:

$10x^{9}+6x^{5}$
