PLEASE HELP!!! MEDAL WILL BE REWARDED! Find the Derivative: f(x)=x^12+13+x^-12

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Use the power rule: \(\dfrac{d}{dx} x^n = n x^{n - 1} \)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12x^11 - 12x^-13

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Also, the derivative of a sum is the sum of the derivatives. The derivative of a constant is zero.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so my final answer would be f'(x)=12x^11-(12)/x^13

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

correct
