TOPIC 01

Derivative operations

Apply power, product, quotient and chain rules with elementary derivatives.

Use one hint at a time. A correction explains what changed, not just the final answer.

01 / Foundation#Your turn

f(x)=\frac{x+7}{x+1}

Quotient denominators stay nonzero; logarithms have positive real arguments and trigonometric derivatives use radians.

Skills and prerequisite lessons

Working and explanation

BUILD THE REASONING

Hint 1

Differentiate the specified function and substitute only after differentiating.

Hint 2

Use this intermediate relation.

f\prime=[(x+1)-(x+t)]/(x+1)^2

Worked solution

The requested value is -6.

Checks and common pitfalls: The domain excludes x=−1, and zero is admissible.

Think first. Reveal a hint when the class is ready.

Teacher preparation and assessment

Defining relation: Apply power, product, quotient and chain rules with elementary derivatives.
$(uv)\prime=u\prime v+uv\prime;\quad [f(g)]\prime=f\prime(g)g\prime$
Conditions: Quotient denominators stay nonzero; logarithms have positive real arguments and trigonometric derivatives use radians.
