f(x)=X^2/(x^2-16)
(X^2-16)(2X)-(X^2)(2X)/(X^2-16)^2...
Well here's what I've got, I think they're right but I'm not sure.
f(x)=X^2/(x^2-16)
(X^2-16)(2X)-(X^2)(2X)/(X^2-16)^2
f'(x)=-32X^2/(X^2-16)^2
(X^4-32X^2+256)(-64X)-(-32X^2)(4X^3-64X)/(X^4-32X^2+256)^2
-64x^5+2048X^3-16384X+128X^5-2048X^3
f''(x)=64X^5-16384X/(X^4-32X^2+256)^2...
