derivative of

\frac{1}{x + 4}

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

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{1}{x + 4})

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

Apply the chain rule:

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

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

\frac{d}{d x} (x + 4) = 1

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

Simplify

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

\int \frac{x ^{5}}{x ^{6} + 1} d x

\frac{d}{d x} (10 ln (x))

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{x + 1}{x + 5})

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (x^{2} e^{7 x y})

\int 2 x (x^{2} + 2)^{9} d x
