B) Differentiate both sides of the equation.
C) Apply the quotient rule and tabulate results.
D) Utilize matrix multiplication.

Answer 1

To calculate the derivative using the quotient rule and create a table of the results, follow these steps: differentiate the equation using the quotient rule, evaluate the derivative at a given point, tabulate the results in a table, and use matrix multiplication for multiple functions.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Start by differentiating both sides of the equation using the quotient rule. The quotient rule states that if you have a function f(x) divided by another function g(x), the derivative is given by [f'(x)g(x) - f(x)g'(x)] / [g(x)]^2.
2. After differentiating, you will have an expression that involves the derivatives of both f(x) and g(x), as well as the original functions f(x) and g(x).
3. Once you have the derivative, you can evaluate it at any given point to find the slope of the tangent line. To do this, substitute the x-coordinate of the point into the derivative expression and simplify to find the numerical value.
4. To tabulate the results, create a table with the x-values in one column and the corresponding derivative values in another column.
5. You can then use matrix multiplication if you have multiple functions to differentiate at once, where the derivative expression for each function is represented as a row vector and the x-values are represented as a column vector.
