We aren't allowed to help people on their tests or quizzes, @sheetalvee

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry :( Good luck, maybe don't have youtube open

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its an online practice quiz to prepare us for our quiz tomorrow but its timedd

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, well, you should study a little harder and maybe ask your teachers for help if you don't understand something (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Quotient rule for the first one, product rule for the second one, and third one is just a sum so differentiate it normally.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Btw it says "watch it" so why not take advantage of that, I'm sure those videos are helpful.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For the first one, ill show you what U got what I got so far, and they're not useful, they just repeat the question slower

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(1-cotx)(4)-(4x)( for the derivative of 1-cotx, that's where I got kinda stuck

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What's the derivative of 1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or really any cosntant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh -cot

OpenStudy (anonymous):

derivative of 1 is zero

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah it's 0..what's the derivative of cotx?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then (1-cotx)(4)-(4x)(-cotx) / (1-cotx)^2 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ f'g-g'f }{ g^2 }\] this is the quotient rule

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes but now you have to get the derivative of f and g

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and it should be -(4x)(1-cotx)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f' and g' means derivative

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay so ill show you what I have on the paper Im getting confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, I dont know where its -(4x)(1-cotx) .... I got (1-cotx)(4)-(4x)(-cot1) / (1-cotx)^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You're missing the crucial point here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1413154028053:dw| this is the quotient rule do you agree?
