To find the derivative \( g'(x) = \frac{x^{9.7} + x^{7.9}}{x^{8.8}} \), we can simplify this expression.
- Split the expression into separate fractions:
\[ g'(x) = \frac{x^{9.7}}{x^{8.8}} + \frac{x^{7.9}}{x^{8.8}} \]
- Use the property of exponents \( \frac{x^a}{x^b} = x^{a-b} \):
\[ g'(x) = x^{9.7 - 8.8} + x^{7.9 - 8.8} \]
- Simplify the exponents:
\[ g'(x) = x^{0.9} + x^{-0.9} \]
Therefore, the simplified form of \( g'(x) \) is:
\[ g'(x) = x^{0.9} + \frac{1}{x^{0.9}} \]
This expression can be further analyzed for specific values or used in further calculus operations if needed!
