quotient rule


The quotient ruleMathworldPlanetmath says that the derivative of the quotient f/g of two differentiable functions f and g exists at all values of x as long as g(x)0 and is given by the formula

ddx[f(x)g(x)]=g(x)f(x)-f(x)g(x)[g(x)]2

The Quotient Rule and the other differentiationMathworldPlanetmath formulas allow us to compute the derivative of any rational function.
