Detail solution
  1. Let .

  2. Apply the power rule: goes to

  3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by :

    1. Differentiate term by term:

      1. Apply the power rule: goes to

      2. The derivative of the constant is zero.

      The result is:

    The result of the chain rule is:

  4. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The first derivative [src]
     1     
-----------
    _______
2*\/ x + 1 
$$\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{x + 1}}$$
The second derivative [src]
    -1      
------------
         3/2
4*(1 + x)   
$$- \frac{1}{4 \left(x + 1\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$$
The third derivative [src]
     3      
------------
         5/2
8*(1 + x)   
$$\frac{3}{8 \left(x + 1\right)^{\frac{5}{2}}}$$
