(x^2 - 36)/x
Detail solution
  1. Apply the quotient rule, which is:

    and .

    To find :

    1. Differentiate term by term:

      1. The derivative of the constant is zero.

      2. Apply the power rule: goes to

      The result is:

    To find :

    1. Apply the power rule: goes to

    Now plug in to the quotient rule:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:
