(\partial)/(\partial x)(y+2/(x^2))

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (y + \frac{2}{x ^{2}})

- \frac{4}{x ^{3}}

Solution steps

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (y + \frac{2}{x ^{2}})

Treat

y

as a constant

Apply the Sum/Difference Rule:

(f \pm g)^{'} = f^{'} \pm g^{'}

= \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (y) + \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (\frac{2}{x ^{2}})

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (y) = 0

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (\frac{2}{x ^{2}}) = - \frac{4}{x ^{3}}

= 0 - \frac{4}{x ^{3}}

Simplify

= - \frac{4}{x ^{3}}
