How do I find f'(x) of f(t)=9/(t^3)?
I do not understand the power rules. Please include a detailed step by step explanation so I can follow along and do similar problems myself. I'm really lost on this unit! Thank you!

Explanation:
We can always factor out constants when differentiating. It often cleans up the actual differentiation process.
Recall that
This means that
Writing in this form allows for actually using the power rule.
The power rule states that
In other words, the derivative of a term raised to the
For our expression,
If
So,
