using quotient rule: d/dx u/v = (v.du - u.dv)/v2
ln[x2] = 2lnx
d/dx 1/(2x ln[x])
= -(2ln[x] + 2)/(2x ln[x])2
= -(ln[x] + 1)/4x2lnx

d/dx (98+5x)/(3x2 + 1)
= ( 5(3x2 + 1) - 6x(98+5x) )/((3x2 + 1)2
= ( -15x2 - 588x + 5 )/(3x2 + 1)2


there's a derivative solver here: http://calc101.com/webMathematica/derivatives.jsp#topdoit
