derivative of

x (x + 1)^{- 1}

\frac{1}{( x + 1 ) ^{2}}

Solution steps

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

Apply the Product Rule:

(f \cdot g)^{'} = f^{'} \cdot g + f \cdot g^{'}

f = x, g = (x + 1)^{- 1}

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

\frac{d x}{d x} = 1

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

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

Simplify

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

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

e^{e^{x}} \to 0 + lim (\frac{e ^{e^{x} - 2}}{2})

\frac{d}{d x} (cot (6 x - x^{2}))

x \cdot sin (\frac{1}{x})

y = x^{3} - 11 x^{2} + 30 x, y = - x^{3} + 11 x^{2} - 30 x

f (x) = 3 - e^{- x}
