Derivation

  1. Initial program 19.7

    \[\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{x + 1}}\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied frac-sub 19.7

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1 \cdot \sqrt{x + 1} - \sqrt{x} \cdot 1}{\sqrt{x} \cdot \sqrt{x + 1}}}\]

  4. Applied simplify 19.7

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\sqrt{1 + x} - \sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x} \cdot \sqrt{x + 1}}\]
  5. Using strategy rm

  6. Applied flip-- 19.4

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\frac{{\left(\sqrt{1 + x}\right)}^2 - {\left(\sqrt{x}\right)}^2}{\sqrt{1 + x} + \sqrt{x}}}}{\sqrt{x} \cdot \sqrt{x + 1}}\]

  7. Applied simplify 0.4

    \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{\color{blue}{1}}{\sqrt{1 + x} + \sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x} \cdot \sqrt{x + 1}}\]
  8. Using strategy rm

  9. Applied associate-/r* 0.4

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + x} + \sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x + 1}}}\]
  10. Removed slow pow expressions
