if f(x) = u(x) / v(x)
f'(x) = ( u'(x) (v(x) - v'(x) u(x) / [ v(x^2)]
now if u = -x & v = 10
so we have ;
f '(x) = [-1*(10) - 0 *(-x)] / (10)^2
f '(x) = -10 / 100 = -1/10 = - 0.1
It's your correct answer.
Good Luck

Dewd....... You are in terminally deep sh|t.
This is y = -x/10 = (-1/10)*x which is in the form y = kx. The derivative of y = kx is dy/dx = k so, in this case,
dy/dx = -1/10

this can be re-written as -1/10x^1
use the power rule as explained in previous question
(1)*(-1/10)x^(1-1)=
-1/10

This one is really simple .. you should learn how to compute derivitives
y'=-1/10
