v

The graph:

from to

Piecewise:

The solution

You have entered [src]
x - log(x + 6)
$$x - \log{\left(x + 6 \right)}$$
x - log(x + 6)
Detail solution
  1. Differentiate term by term:

    1. Apply the power rule: goes to

    2. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

      1. Let .

      2. The derivative of is .

      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:

      So, the result is:

    The result is:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The graph
The first derivative [src]
      1  
1 - -----
    x + 6
$$1 - \frac{1}{x + 6}$$
The second derivative [src]
   1    
--------
       2
(6 + x) 
$$\frac{1}{\left(x + 6\right)^{2}}$$
The third derivative [src]
  -2    
--------
       3
(6 + x) 
$$- \frac{2}{\left(x + 6\right)^{3}}$$
