    Above answer is correct. For completeness here's a full explanation:

    f'(x) = d/dx (x^pi) - d/dx (e^pi) (derivative of sum/difference equals sum/difference of derivatives)

    = d/dx (x^pi) - 0 (derivative of a constant is zero)

    = pi*x^(pi-1) (power rule)

    e^pi is a constant

    so f'(x) = pi * x^(pi-1)
