Apply the quotient rule for differentiation, which states that if $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ are functions and $h(x)$ is the function defined by ${\displaystyle h(x) = \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}}$, where ${g(x) \neq 0}$, then ${\displaystyle h'(x) = \frac{f'(x) \cdot g(x) - g'(x) \cdot f(x)}{g(x)^2}}$

$\frac{\frac{d}{dx}\left(-1\right)\left(x-6\right)^2-\left(-1\right)\frac{d}{dx}\left(\left(x-6\right)^2\right)}{\left(\left(x-6\right)^2\right)^2}$

Learn how to solve quotient rule of differentiation problems step by step online. Find the derivative d/dx(-1/((x-6)^2)). Apply the quotient rule for differentiation, which states that if f(x) and g(x) are functions and h(x) is the function defined by {\displaystyle h(x) = \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}}, where {g(x) \neq 0}, then {\displaystyle h'(x) = \frac{f'(x) \cdot g(x) - g'(x) \cdot f(x)}{g(x)^2}}. Multiply -1 times -1. Simplify \left(\left(x-6\right)^2\right)^2 using the power of a power property: \left(a^m\right)^n=a^{m\cdot n}. In the expression, m equals 2 and n equals 2. The derivative of the constant function (-1) is equal to zero.
