derivative of

\frac{1}{x + 2}

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

Solution steps

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

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

Apply the chain rule:

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

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

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

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

Simplify

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

\frac{d}{d x} (cos (e^{- 5 x^{2}}))

x \to 0 lim ((1 - 5 x)^{\frac{5}{x}})

\int cos (a x) d x

\frac{d ^{2}}{d x ^{2}} (5 x cos (x^{2}))

\int (3 - 2 x)^{5} d x
