Ok so nevermind i won't help
Answer:
(1, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Current position (3,2)
Moving left of the x axis results in a decrease, so: 3 - 2 (As she is moving 2 units to the left)
Moving up results in a positive increase on the y axis, so: 2 + 1 (As she is moving one unit up)
nothing can be further simplify in this problem
You could do the question the way it is written, but it is far easier to bring the negative power up to the numerator.
y= x^2 - 3. The derivative of that is
dy/dx = 2x The three is a constant and is always dropped when a derivative is taken
d(-3)/dx = 0
If you are a purist and want to solve the question the way it is written, you could do it this way.
dy/dx = d(1)/dx x^-2 - d(x^-2)/dx * 1
======================
(x^-2)^2
dy/dx = - (-2 x^ - 3) / x^-4
dy/dx = 2 x^-3 * x^4
dy/dx = 2 x^(-3 + 4)
dy/dx = 2x ^ 1
dy/dx = 2x <<<<< answer
