Apply the quotient rule, which is:
and .
To find :
Apply the power rule: goes to
To find :
Differentiate term by term:
The derivative of the constant is zero.
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:
Now plug in to the quotient rule:
Now simplify:
The answer is:

2*|1 - -------- + -----------|
| -3 + 2*x 2|
\ (-3 + 2*x) /
------------------------------
-3 + 2*x
/ 2 \
| 4*x 4*x |
12*|-1 - ----------- + --------|
| 2 -3 + 2*x|
\ (-3 + 2*x) /
--------------------------------
