(x^2 + 36)/x
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)=x2+36f{\left(x \right)} = x^{2} + 36 and g(x)=xg{\left(x \right)} = x.

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

    1. Differentiate x2+36x^{2} + 36 term by term:

      1. The derivative of the constant 3636 is zero.

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

      The result is: 2x2 x

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

    1. Apply the power rule: xx goes to 11

    Now plug in to the quotient rule:

    x2−36x2\frac{x^{2} - 36}{x^{2}}

  2. Now simplify:

    1−36x21 - \frac{36}{x^{2}}

The answer is:

1−36x21 - \frac{36}{x^{2}}
