Apply the quotient rule, which is:
and .
To find :
Differentiate term by term:
The derivative of the constant is zero.
The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
Apply the power rule: goes to
So, the result is:
The result is:

So, the result is:
The result is:
Now plug in to the quotient rule:
The answer is:
3 2*(3*x - 1) ------- - ----------- 2*x + 5 2 (2*x + 5)
/ 2*(-1 + 3*x)\ 4*|-3 + ------------| \ 5 + 2*x / --------------------- 2 (5 + 2*x)
