### Question 6: Derivatives **Problem:** If \( f(x) = \frac{2 - x^2}{7 + x^2} \), find: \( f'(x) = \) **Instructions:** Calculate the derivative of the function \( f(x) \) given above. Fill in the derivative in the space provided. **Hints:** - Consider using the quotient rule for differentiation, which states: If \( f(x) = \frac{u(x)}{v(x)} \), then \( f'(x) = \frac{u'(x)v(x) - u(x)v'(x)}{[v(x)]^2} \). - Identify \( u(x) = 2 - x^2 \) and \( v(x) = 7 + x^2 \). **Solution Steps:** 1. Differentiate \( u(x) \) and \( v(x) \). 2. Substitute these into the quotient rule formula. 3. Simplify the expression to find \( f'(x) \).
