Solution
\[f\left( x \right) = 3 x^5 + 40 x^3 + 240x\]
\[f'\left( x \right) = 15 x^4 + 120 x^2 + 240\]
\[ = 15 \left( x^4 + 8 x^2 + 16 \right)\]
\[ = 15 \left( x^2 + 4 \right)^2 > 0, \forall x \in R \left[ \because 15 > 0 \text { and } \left( x^2 + 4 \right)^2 > 0 \right]\]

∴ f'(x) = `squarex^2 - square + square`
