\[y=\sqrt{(x ^{2}+9)\div(x+3)}\]

ick
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I know it is getting me so confused
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it will be
\[\frac{1}{2\sqrt{\frac{x^2+9}{x+3}}}\times \frac{d}{dx}\frac{x^2+3}{x+3}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
second part you get from the quotient rule

and of course the first part is
\[\frac{\sqrt{x+3}}{2\sqrt{x^2+9}}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I think it the derivative is equal to zero
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i made a typo in the first line, second part should be
\[\frac{d}{dx}\frac{x^2+9}{x+3}\]
and that derivative is
\[\frac{x^2+6x-9}{(x+3)^2}\] by the quotient rule
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you have to set this equal to zero??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
NOpe

good
OpenStudy (anonymous):
factor x^2+6x+9
(x+3)^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So th etop and bottome cross each other out and it becomes 1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no there is no
\[x^2+6x+9\] in it. it is
\[x^2+6x-9\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
OH I wish it was +9
