Find the Derivative - d/dx 24/(x^2+12)
Problem
Solution
Identify the expression as a constant divided by a function, which can be rewritten using a negative exponent to avoid the quotient rule:
24*(x2+12)(−1) Apply the chain rule by taking the derivative of the outer function (the power) and multiplying it by the derivative of the inner function (
x2+12 .Differentiate the outer function:
−24*(x2+12)(−2) Differentiate the inner function:
(d(x2)+12)/d(x)=2*x Multiply the results together:
−24*(x2+12)(−2)⋅2*x Simplify the expression by multiplying the constants and variables in the numerator and moving the negative exponent to the denominator.
