How do you differentiate one function divided by another? When two functions form a fraction, the Quotient Rule helps us find its derivative.
In this visual calculus lesson, we'll break down the Quotient Rule step by step, understand the formula, and solve examples to see exactly how it works.
The Quotient Rule Formula:
\frac{g(x)f'(x)-f(x)g'(x)}{[g(x)]^2}
]
Remember the pattern:
Bottom × Derivative of Top
Minus Top × Derivative of Bottom
Divided by Bottom Squared
