a) Just plug in 1 for the numerator and g(x) for the denominator in the quotient rule.
b) \[ -{\frac {1+k{{\rm e}^{s}}}{ \left( s+k{{\rm e}^{s}} \right) ^{2}}} \] assuming y is a function of s.
c) Follows from \[ x^{-n} = \frac{1}{x^n} \] and \[ \frac{d}{dx} x^n = nx^{n-1} \]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is the quotient rule the same thing as the reciprocal part b?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What do you mean? The reciprocal rule is a special case of the quotient rule. You can use either one for part b, but it's easier to use the reciprocal rule.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The quotient rule f'g-fg'/g^(2)

but g(x) is just a variable
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok I got it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What is your question? g is not just a variable, it's a function.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ok, hit good answer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
OK I need help with differentiating the bottom on part could you show me step by step how to differentiate that one?

part b
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and also the numerator of the function
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You need to differentiate\[ \Large s+k\cdot e^s \] with respect to s.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The derivative of a sum is the sum of derivatives, so differentiate s and then differentiate k*e^s.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What is the derivative of s?

1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes. And what is the derivative of e^s ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@ta, see the attachee
OpenStudy (anonymous):
e^(s)

Your attachment doesn't include part b) explanation, thats what he asked about.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes, so now you can add them together and you get the derivative
OpenStudy (anonymous):
And then just plug that into the formula in part a)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1+e^(s)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No! Don't forget the factor k!

k does not depend on s, so you can just leave it unchanged
OpenStudy (anonymous):
But you must not forget it :D

here u r

raheen there is still no explanation of part b :D

lol raheen are you just trying to get a medal, because I can give you one if thats what you want :D
OpenStudy (anonymous):
your answer is wrong raheen, I got -1-ke^(s)/(s+ke^(s))^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no YThe, I always try to help , pls don read the things in wrong way
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Your answer is correct ta.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes, thanks for the help Y and raheen
