$\frac{(\sin (x))}{e^{x}}$

Step 1

Differentiate using the Quotient Rule which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [\frac{f (x)}{g (x)}]$ is $\frac{g (x) \frac{d}{d x} [f (x)] - f (x) \frac{d}{d x} [g (x)]}{{g (x)}^{2}}$ where $f (x) = \sin (x)$ and $g (x) = e^{x}$ .

$\frac{e^{x} \frac{d}{d x} [\sin (x)] - \sin (x) \frac{d}{d x} [e^{x}]}{{(e^{x})}^{2}}$

Step 2.1

Apply the power rule and multiply exponents, ${(a^{m})}^{n} = a^{m n}$ .

$\frac{e^{x} \frac{d}{d x} [\sin (x)] - \sin (x) \frac{d}{d x} [e^{x}]}{e^{x \cdot 2}}$

Step 2.2

Move $2$ to the left of $x$ .

$\frac{e^{x} \cos (x) - \sin (x) \frac{d}{d x} [e^{x}]}{e^{2 x}}$

Step 4

Differentiate using the Exponential Rule which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [a^{x}]$ is $a^{x} \ln (a)$ where $a$ = $e$ .
