Question

Find the derivative of the function.
y = -1/[(t+6)^6]
y '(t) =

Answer 1

\[-1\div(t+6)^{6}\]

Answer 2

so, when there is a exponent in the denominator, how do you break the function into outside and inside witht he chain rule?

Answer 3

rewrite y as y=-1(t+6)^-6

Answer 4

y'=-1*-6*(t+6)^-7
y'=6/(t+6)^7

Answer 5

where did the 6 in the numerator come from?

Answer 6

-6*-1

Answer 7

negative exponent in expression

Answer 8

instead of dividing by a positive exponent, i multiplied by a negative exponent

Answer 9

thanks!
