Solve x^3/x^2

$$\frac{ { x }^{ 3 } }{ { x }^{ 2 } }$$

Evaluate

$$x$$

Steps Using Quotient of Powers Property

Use the rules of exponents to simplify the expression.

$$\frac{x^{3}}{x^{2}}$$

To divide powers of the same base, subtract the denominator's exponent from the numerator's exponent.

$$x^{3-2}$$

Subtract 2 from 3.

$$x^{1}$$

For any term t, t^{1}=t.

$$x$$

Differentiate w.r.t. x

$$1$$

Solution Steps

To divide powers of the same base, subtract the denominator's exponent from the numerator's exponent.

$$\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}x}(\frac{1}{1}x^{3-2})$$

Do the arithmetic.

$$\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}x}(x^{1})$$

The derivative of a polynomial is the sum of the derivatives of its terms. The derivative of a constant term is 0. The derivative of ax^{n} is nax^{n-1}.

$$x^{1-1}$$

Do the arithmetic.

$$x^{0}$$

For any term t except 0, t^{0}=1.

$$1$$
