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

    and .

    To find :

    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:

    To find :

    1. Let .

    2. Apply the power rule: goes to

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

      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:

      The result of the chain rule is:

    Now plug in to the quotient rule:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:
