Question

please help me understand this problem Quotient rule exercise:
x^(30 )/x^10
x^(30 )/x^(–10)

Answer 1

These are two separate problems, yes?

Answer 2

For the first one, here is how our Quotient Rule setup would look:
\[\Large \left(\frac{x^{30}}{x^{10}}\right)' \quad=\quad \frac{\color{royalblue}{(x^{30})'}(x^{10})-(x^{30})\color{royalblue}{(x^{10})'}}{(x^{10})^2}\]
Confused by any of that?
We need to take the derivative of the blue parts.

Answer 3

yes
thank you
