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

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

Solution steps

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

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

Apply the chain rule:

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

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

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

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

Simplify

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