I have had to use Maple 17 once in the past and I have to use it for a problem in Calculus.  This problem, I have been trying to figure out how to type it in correctly to get the answer.  I know the answer since its in back of the book.  Here is the explanation w/ the problem:

"Use a computer algebra system to differentiate the function"(She wants us to use Maple.)

f(x)=((x^2-x-3)/(x^2+1))*(x^2+x+1)

in word terms, f(x)= (x squared,-x,-3)/(x squared, plus 1) [all multiplied by] (x squared, plus x, plus 1)

Any help as soon as possible would be appreciated.  i am completely lost when it comes to Maple.
