\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{1}{a - x})

\frac{1}{( a - x ) ^{2}}

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{1}{a - x})

Apply exponent rule:

\frac{1}{a} = a^{- 1}

= \frac{d}{d x} ((a - x)^{- 1})

Apply the chain rule:

- \frac{1}{( a - x ) ^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} (a - x)

= - \frac{1}{( a - x ) ^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} (a - x)

\frac{d}{d x} (a - x) = - 1

= - \frac{1}{( a - x ) ^{2}} (- 1)

Simplify

= \frac{1}{( a - x ) ^{2}}

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (- 0.06 x^{2} + 1.08 x)

2 x^{3} - x^{2} + 2

\int (6 x^{2} - 3 x + 4) d x

x \to \frac{1}{2} lim (x sec (π) x)

\int 8 e^{8 x} d x
