Derive the following.

Answer 1

\[(\frac{ y+1 }{ y-1 })^-17\]

That's to the power of -17

Answer 3

\[(y+1)^{-17} * (y-1)^{17}\]

Answer 4

yeah i guess you can rephrase it that way?

Answer 5

Now i guess we'll use the product rule?

Answer 6

Dang! Why not apply the quotient rule? D:

Answer 7

you would get 1/ something

Answer 8

One more mistake.
\[(\frac{y+1}{y-1})^{-17} \to (\frac{y-1}{y+1} )^{17}\]

Answer 9

yeah i had that in the beginning lol

Answer 10
