Find the first derivative to g(x)=x+3/x

use (Quotient Rule):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it \(\Large{g(x)= \frac {x+3}{x}}\) or \(\Large{g(x)=x+ \frac {3}{x}}\)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the second one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the derivative of x is 1, and the the derivative of n/x is \(\frac{(-1)(n)}{x^2}\) so g'(x) will be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1+-3/x^2??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep :) you can remove the "+" sign \(g'(x)=1-\frac{3}{x^2}\)
