slope of 1/x

Solution

slope

\frac{1}{x}

Solution

- \frac{1}{x ^{2}}

Solution steps

y = \frac{1}{x}

In order to find the slope of the function, take the derivative of

\frac{1}{x}

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

- \frac{1}{x ^{2}}

Popular Examples

derivative of (1-xe^x)/(x+e^x)derivative of

\frac{1 - x e ^{x}}{x + e ^{x}}

(y^2-x^3-2x)dx+2xydy=0

(y^{2} - x^{3} - 2 x) d x + 2 x y d y = 0

limit as x approaches-2 of (10x)/(x^2)

x \to - 2 lim (\frac{10 x}{x ^{2}})

limit as x approaches 1 of x^2+3x+2

x \to 1 lim (x^{2} + 3 x + 2)

integral of 1/(sqrt(1-cos(x)))

\int \frac{1}{1 - cos ( x )} d x
