2*x - 9 -------- 2 (x - 5)
d /2*x - 9 \ --|--------| dx| 2| \(x - 5) /
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:
To find :
Let .
Apply the power rule: goes to
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :
Differentiate term by term:
The derivative of the constant is zero.
Apply the power rule: goes to
The result is:
The result of the chain rule is:
Now plug in to the quotient rule:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
2 (10 - 2*x)*(2*x - 9) -------- + -------------------- 2 4 (x - 5) (x - 5)
/ 3*(-9 + 2*x)\ 2*|-4 + ------------| \ -5 + x / --------------------- 3 (-5 + x)
/ 2*(-9 + 2*x)\ 12*|3 - ------------| \ -5 + x / --------------------- 4 (-5 + x)
