Find derivative: Problem 6 (a) http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/mathematics/18-01-single-variable-calculus-fall-2005/exams/ocw01f05exam1sol.pdf
\[ y = \frac {(e^x-e^{-x})} {(e^x+e^{-x})}\]
do you know the quotient rule?
use logarithmic diff..it would be simpler..
yes, I am getting a different answer from solutions, think it has an error
\( y = \tanh x \)
oh yeah, if they know hyperbolic trig yet this is easy

They probably want you to use quotient rule your function is f(x)/g(x) The quotient rule is ( f'(x)*g(x) - g'(x)f(x) )/( g(x) )^(2)
