find the derivitive

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[9^x+\frac{ 2 }{ x^5 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

second part should be easy for the first on you need to remember that \[\frac{d}{dx}[b^x]=b^x\ln(b)\] always

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, so the first part is ln(9) 9^x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. is the second part \[-\frac{ 3 }{ x^6 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hhmm no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if it helps, write it as \[2x^{-5}\] then use the all mighty power rule

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. then do you use nx^n-1 to get 2*-5x^-6?
