derivative of f(x)=(x^4+3x)^{-1}

Solution

derivative of

f (x) = (x^{4} + 3 x)^{- 1}

Solution

- \frac{4 x ^{3} + 3}{( x ^{4} + 3 x ) ^{2}}

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} ((x^{4} + 3 x)^{- 1})

Apply the chain rule:

- \frac{1}{( x ^{4} + 3 x ) ^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} (x^{4} + 3 x)

= - \frac{1}{( x ^{4} + 3 x ) ^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} (x^{4} + 3 x)

\frac{d}{d x} (x^{4} + 3 x) = 4 x^{3} + 3

= - \frac{1}{( x ^{4} + 3 x ) ^{2}} (4 x^{3} + 3)

Simplify

- \frac{1}{( x ^{4} + 3 x ) ^{2}} (4 x^{3} + 3) : - \frac{4 x ^{3} + 3}{( x ^{4} + 3 x ) ^{2}}

= - \frac{4 x ^{3} + 3}{( x ^{4} + 3 x ) ^{2}}
