Answer

$h'(x) = \frac{1}{2}\sqrt{\frac{g(x)}{f(x)}}\cdot \frac{f'(x)~g(x)-f(x)~g'(x)}{[g(x)]^2}$

Work Step by Step

$h(x) = \sqrt{\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}}$ $h'(x) = \frac{1}{2}\Big(\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}\Big)^{-1/2}\cdot \frac{d}{dx}[\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}]$ $h'(x) = \frac{1}{2}\sqrt{\frac{g(x)}{f(x)}}\cdot \frac{f'(x)~g(x)-f(x)~g'(x)}{[g(x)]^2}$
