$\frac{d}{d x} \cdot x^{\frac{14}{3}}$

Step 1

Differentiate using the Power Rule which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [x^{n}]$ is $n x^{n - 1}$ where $n = \frac{14}{3}$ .

$\frac{14}{3} x^{\frac{14}{3} - 1}$

Step 2

To write $- 1$ as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by $\frac{3}{3}$ .

$\frac{14}{3} x^{\frac{14}{3} - 1 \cdot \frac{3}{3}}$

Step 3

Combine $- 1$ and $\frac{3}{3}$ .

$\frac{14}{3} x^{\frac{14}{3} + \frac{- 1 \cdot 3}{3}}$

Step 4

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$\frac{14}{3} x^{\frac{14 - 1 \cdot 3}{3}}$

Step 5

Simplify the numerator.

Step 5.1

Multiply $- 1$ by $3$ .

$\frac{14}{3} x^{\frac{14 - 3}{3}}$

Step 5.2

Subtract $3$ from $14$ .

$\frac{14}{3} x^{\frac{11}{3}}$

Step 6

Combine $\frac{14}{3}$ and $x^{\frac{11}{3}}$ .

$\frac{14 x^{\frac{11}{3}}}{3}$
