2 x - 6*x + 13 ------------- x - 3
(x^2 - 6*x + 13)/(x - 3)
Apply the quotient rule, which is:
and .
To find :
Differentiate term by term:
The derivative of the constant is zero.
Apply the power rule: goes to
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 :
Differentiate term by term:
The derivative of the constant is zero.
Apply the power rule: goes to
The result is:
Now plug in to the quotient rule:
Now simplify:
The answer is:
2 -6 + 2*x x - 6*x + 13 -------- - ------------- x - 3 2 (x - 3)
/ 2 \ | 13 + x - 6*x| 2*|-1 + -------------| | 2 | \ (-3 + x) / ---------------------- -3 + x
