Detail solution
  1. Differentiate term by term:

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

      1. Let .

      2. The derivative of is .

      3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :

        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:

        The result of the chain rule is:

      So, the result is:

    2. The derivative of the constant is zero.

    The result is:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:
