Exercise
$\frac{d}{dx}\:-\:\frac{6}{x^3}$
Step-by-step Solution
Learn how to solve quotient rule of differentiation problems step by step online. Find the derivative d/dx(-6/(x^3)). Apply the quotient rule for differentiation, which states that if f(x) and g(x) are functions and h(x) is the function defined by {\displaystyle h(x) = \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}}, where {g(x) \neq 0}, then {\displaystyle h'(x) = \frac{f'(x) \cdot g(x) - g'(x) \cdot f(x)}{g(x)^2}}. Simplify \left(x^3\right)^2 using the power of a power property: \left(a^m\right)^n=a^{m\cdot n}. In the expression, m equals 3 and n equals 2. The derivative of the constant function (-6) is equal to zero. x+0=x, where x is any expression.
