How do you differentiate y = (5x^2) / (4x-1)? Calculus Basic Differentiation Rules Quotient Rule 1 Answer Himanshu Shekhar Jun 9, 2016 dy/dx = (10x(2x-1))/ (4x-1)^2 Just use the quotient rule and simplify. Explanation: dy/dx = ((4x-1)* d/dx [ 5x^2 ] - 5x^2 * d/dx [ 4x-1 ] )/ (4x-1)^2 dy/dx = ((4x-1)* 10x - 5x^2 * 4 )/ (16x^2+1-8x) dy/dx = ((40x^2-10x) - 20x^2 )/ (16x^2+1-8x) dy/dx = (10x(2x-1))/ (4x-1)^2 Answer link Related questions What is the Quotient Rule for derivatives?
