Question

Simplify the functions and find their derivative whenever it is well defined.
How do I find the derivative of f(x)=x^(1/3)/x^(2)?
f(x)=x^(-5/3)

Answer 1

bring the power down take one away from power
(-5/3)x^(-5/3 -1) =( -5/3) x^(-8/3)

Answer 2

I am kind of still confused?

Answer 3

the power of x is -5/3you bring down then take one away from the power so (-5/3) -1
ax^n differentiation is anx^n-1

Answer 4

oh I see. Got it.
Thank you.
