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

    1. Apply the quotient rule, which is:

      and .

      To find :

      1. Apply the product rule:

        ; to find :

        1. Apply the power rule: goes to

        ; to find :

        1. Differentiate term by term:

          1. The derivative of the constant is zero.

          2. The derivative of is .

          The result is:

        The result is:

      To find :

      1. Apply the power rule: goes to

      Now plug in to the quotient rule:

    So, the result is:

  2. Now simplify:
