f(x) = (x-2)/(x^2+3) find f'(x)

f(x) = (x-2)/(x^2+3). To find
f'(x).


Solution:


f(x)  =
u(x)*v(x),  f'(x) = u(x)v'(x) + u'(x)v(x)


Here u(x) = x-2 
and v(x) = 1/(x^2+3)


u'(x) = (x-2) =1, v'(x) {1/(x^2+3)^2}
= -(1/(x^2+3))(x^2)' = -2x/(x^2+3),  {u(v(x))' =
u'(x)*v'(x)


So f(x) = (x-2){-2x/(x^2+3)^2
+1/(x^2+3)


= {(x-2)(-2x)
+(x^2+3)}/(x^2+3)^2


={-2x^2+4x+x^2+3}/(x^2+3)


=
(-x^2+4x+3)/(x^2+3)^2


=-(x^2-4x-3)/(x^2+3)

Comment on the setting and character of "The Fall of the House of Usher."How does setting act as a character?

Excellent observation, as it identifies how the settings of Poe's stories reflect the characters of their protagonists. Whet...
