Transform

Detail solution

Apply the quotient rule, which is:

$\frac{d}{d x} \frac{f{\left(x \right)}}{g{\left(x \right)}} = \frac{- f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}}{g^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$

$f{\left(x \right)} = 1$ and $g{\left(x \right)} = x^{3}$ .

To find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. The derivative of the constant $1$ is zero.
To find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. Apply the power rule: $x^{3}$ goes to $3 x^{2}$
Now plug in to the quotient rule:

$- \frac{3}{x^{4}}$

The answer is:

$- \frac{3}{x^{4}}$
