Find the derivative of \(\displaystyle y = \left(6 x^{2} + 2 x + 9\right) e^{- x}\).
Using the quotient rule with \(\displaystyle f = 6 x^{2} + 2 x + 9\), \(\displaystyle f' = 12 x + 2\), \(\displaystyle g = e^{x}\), and \(\displaystyle g'= e^{x}\) gives:
\begin{equation*} \frac{ (e^{x})(12 x + 2) - (6 x^{2} + 2 x + 9)(e^{x})}{(e^{x})^2} = - \left(6 x^{2} - 10 x + 7\right) e^{- x} \end{equation*}
