Question

Let f(x)=cos(x)x^-2
F’(x)=

Answer 1

`f(x)=cos(x)x^(-2)\implies f(x)=\cfrac{cos(x)}{x^2}\implies \cfrac{df}{dx}=\stackrel{\textit{quotient rule}}{\cfrac{-sin(x)\cdot x^2-cos(x)\cdot 2x}{(x^2)^2}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{df}{dx}=\cfrac{-x[x\cdot sin(x)+2cos(x)]}{x^4}\implies \cfrac{df}{dx}=\cfrac{-[xsin(x)+2cos(x)]}{x^3}`
