derivative of

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

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

Solution steps

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

Apply the Quotient Rule:

(\frac{f}{g})^{'} = \frac{f ^{'} \cdot g - g ^{'} \cdot f}{g ^{2}}

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

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

\frac{d x}{d x} = 1

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

Simplify

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

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