\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{2}{x + 5})

- \frac{2}{( x + 5 ) ^{2}}

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{2}{x + 5})

Take the constant out:

(a \cdot f)^{'} = a \cdot f^{'}

= 2 \frac{d}{d x} (\frac{1}{x + 5})

Apply exponent rule:

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

= 2 \frac{d}{d x} ((x + 5)^{- 1})

Apply the chain rule:

- \frac{1}{( x + 5 ) ^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} (x + 5)

= - \frac{1}{( x + 5 ) ^{2}} \frac{d}{d x} (x + 5)

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

= 2 (- \frac{1}{( x + 5 ) ^{2}} \cdot 1)

Simplify

2 (- \frac{1}{( x + 5 ) ^{2}} \cdot 1) : - \frac{2}{( x + 5 ) ^{2}}

= - \frac{2}{( x + 5 ) ^{2}}

x \to 0 + lim (cot (x) - csc (x))

\int sec (y) tan (y) d y

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{1}{x + 7})

\int x^{2} x + 22 d x

x \to 0 lim (a x + b)
