find the derivative of each of the following
\[f(x)=\frac{ 6x-11}{ 8x+1 }\]
@ganeshie8 what would we do in this situation
familiar wid quotient rule ? or product rule ?
not really
you need to knw any one of them to do this
\(\large \left(\frac{f}{g}\right)' = \frac{g\times f' - g' \times f}{g^2}\)
i am confused, for f or g whay would we plug in
\(\large \left(\frac{ 6x-11}{ 8x+1 }\right)' = \frac{(8x+1)\times (6x-11)' - (8x+1)'\times (6x-11)}{(8x+1)^2}\)
then we multpliy the equations and subtract them
take the derivatives first
\(\large \left(\frac{ 6x-11}{ 8x+1 }\right)' = \frac{(8x+1)\times (6x-11)' - (8x+1)'\times (6x-11)}{(8x+1)^2}\) \(\large \left(\frac{ 6x-11}{ 8x+1 }\right)' = \frac{(8x+1)\times (6) - (8)\times (6x-11)}{(8x+1)^2}\)
now multiply and simplify
\[\frac{ -82 }{ 80x+1 }\]
the derivative is 80x which is 80
?? is this another problem ?
no isnt that the answer
nope
\(\large \left(\frac{ 6x-11}{ 8x+1 }\right)' = \frac{(8x+1)\times (6x-11)' - (8x+1)'\times (6x-11)}{(8x+1)^2}\) \(\large \qquad \qquad ~~= \frac{(8x+1)\times (6) - (8)\times (6x-11)}{(8x+1)^2}\) \(\large \qquad \qquad ~~= \frac{48x+6 - 48x +88}{(8x+1)^2}\)
simplify
@ganeshie8 it would become \[\frac{ 94 }{ (8x-1)^2 }\]
how come denominator changed to 8x-1 ha ?
it should be (8x+1)^2 in the denominator right ?
@ganeshie8 my mistake, but that would correct though\[\frac{ 94 }{ 8x+1 }^2\]
power of two is for denominator
\(\large \frac{94}{(8x+1)^2}\) is \(\large \color{Red}{\checkmark}\)
but would the derivative be 8
derivative is \(\large \frac{94}{(8x+1)^2} \)
