Quotient Rule

Interactive practice questions

Suppose we want to differentiate $y=\frac{2x-5}{5x-2}$y=2x55x2 using the quotient rule.

a

Using the substitution $u=2x-5$u=2x5, find $u'$u.

b

Using the substitution $v=5x-2$v=5x2, find $v'$v.

c

Hence find $y'$y.

d

Is it possible for the derivative of this function to be zero?
