Questions: Find the derivative of the function.
g(t) = e^(-2 / t^5)
Transcript text: Find the derivative of the function.
\[
g(t)=e^{-2 / t^{5}}
\]
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Define the Function
We start with the function given in the problem:
\[
g(t) = e^{-\frac{2}{t^5}}
\]
Step 2: Differentiate the Function
To find the derivative \( g'(t) \), we apply the chain rule. The derivative of the exponential function \( e^u \) is \( e^u \cdot u' \), where \( u = -\frac{2}{t^5} \).
Calculating the derivative of \( u \):
\[
u' = \frac{d}{dt}\left(-\frac{2}{t^5}\right) = 10 \cdot t^{-6} = \frac{10}{t^6}
\]
Thus, the derivative of \( g(t) \) is:
\[
g'(t) = e^{-\frac{2}{t^5}} \cdot \frac{10}{t^6}
\]
Step 3: Simplify the Derivative
Combining the results, we have:
\[
g'(t) = \frac{10 \cdot e^{-\frac{2}{t^5}}}{t^6}
\]
Final Answer
The derivative of the function \( g(t) \) is:
\[
\boxed{g'(t) = \frac{10 \cdot e^{-\frac{2}{t^5}}}{t^6}}
\]
