2. Find the derivatives of the following functions:
(a) Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle f(x)=\frac{3x^{2}-5}{x^{3}-9}.}

Solution:
| Part (a): |
|---|
| We need to use the quotient rule: |

| Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle = \frac{6x(x^{3}-9)-(3x^{2}-5)(3x^{2})}{(x^{3}-9)^{2}}} |
| Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle = \frac{6x^{4}-54x-9x^{4}+15x^{2}}{(x^{3}-9)^{2}}} |
| Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle = \frac{-3x^{4}+15x^{2}-54x}{(x^{3}-9)^{2}}.} |
| Part (b): |

| Both parts (b) and (c) attempt to confuse you by including the familiar constants Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle e} and Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \pi} . Remember - they are just constants, like 10 or 1/2. With that in mind, we really just need to apply the chain rule to find |
| Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle g'(x)\,=\,0-2\sin\left(\sqrt{x-2}\right)\cdot\frac{1}{2}\cdot(x-2)^{-1/2}\cdot1\,=\,\,-\,\frac{\sin\left(\sqrt{x-2}\right)}{\sqrt{x-2}}.} |
| Part (c): |
|---|
| We can choose to expand the second term, finding |
| Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle e(x^{2}+2)^{2}=ex^{4}+4ex^{2}+4e.} |
| We then only require the product rule on the first term, so |
| Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h'(x)\,=\,(4x)'\cdot\sin(x)+4x\cdot(\sin(x))'+\left(ex^{4}+4ex^{2}+4e\right)'\,=\,4\sin(x)+4x\cos(x)+4ex^{3}+8ex.} |
