Detail solution
  1. Apply the quotient rule, which is:

    and .

    To find :

    1. Differentiate term by term:

      1. The derivative of the constant is zero.

      2. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

        1. Apply the power rule: goes to

        So, the result is:

      The result is:

    To find :

    1. Let .

    2. The derivative of is itself.

    3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :

      1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

        1. Apply the power rule: goes to

        So, the result is:

      The result of the chain rule is:

    Now plug in to the quotient rule:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
       -2*x     /     2\  -2*x
- 2*x*e     - 2*\1 - x /*e    
$$- 2 x e^{- 2 x} - 2 \left(1 - x^{2}\right) e^{- 2 x}$$
The second derivative [src]
  /       2      \  -2*x
2*\1 - 2*x  + 4*x/*e    
$$2 \left(- 2 x^{2} + 4 x + 1\right) e^{- 2 x}$$
The third derivative [src]
  /             2\  -2*x
4*\1 - 6*x + 2*x /*e    
$$4 \left(2 x^{2} - 6 x + 1\right) e^{- 2 x}$$
