Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are just looking for the derivative, then all you need to use the power rule for this. Technically the x in (x-9) has a power to the 1, so really x^1-9. To use power rule, you bring down the exponent, in this case, 1, and then minus 1 from what the exponent was.
1x^(1-1) = 1x^0. The derivative of any constant is 0, so don't even worry about the -9. We know that anything raised to the zero is just 1, so in this case your answer is 1.
Hope this helps :)
