derivative of

f (x) = \frac{1}{1 - x}

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

Solution steps

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

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

Apply the chain rule:

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

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

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

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

Simplify

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

\frac{d}{d x} (300 x - \frac{1}{2} x^{2})

\frac{d}{d x} (2 x^{- 6} + x^{- 1})

\int 8 e^{3 x} d x

n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{n - 1}{6 n - 1}

\int cos (7 x + 4) d x
