(x^2 - 6*x + 13)/(x - 3)
Detail solution
  1. Apply the quotient rule, which is:

    ddxf(x)g(x)=f(x)ddxg(x)+g(x)ddxf(x)g2(x)\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(x)=x26x+13f{\left(x \right)} = x^{2} - 6 x + 13 and g(x)=x3g{\left(x \right)} = x - 3.

    To find ddxf(x)\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}:

    1. Differentiate x26x+13x^{2} - 6 x + 13 term by term:

      1. The derivative of the constant 1313 is zero.

      2. Apply the power rule: x2x^{2} goes to 2x2 x

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

        1. Apply the power rule: xx goes to 11

        So, the result is: 6-6

      The result is: 2x62 x - 6

    To find ddxg(x)\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}:

    1. Differentiate x3x - 3 term by term:

      1. The derivative of the constant 3-3 is zero.

      2. Apply the power rule: xx goes to 11

      The result is: 11

    Now plug in to the quotient rule:

    x2+6x+(x3)(2x6)13(x3)2\frac{- x^{2} + 6 x + \left(x - 3\right) \left(2 x - 6\right) - 13}{\left(x - 3\right)^{2}}

  2. Now simplify:

    x26x+5x26x+9\frac{x^{2} - 6 x + 5}{x^{2} - 6 x + 9}


The answer is:

x26x+5x26x+9\frac{x^{2} - 6 x + 5}{x^{2} - 6 x + 9}
