Derivation

  1. Initial program 20.1

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

  3. Applied frac-sub20.0

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

  4. Applied simplify20.0

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

  6. Applied flip--19.8

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

  7. Applied simplify0.4

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

  9. Applied *-un-lft-identity0.4

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

  10. Applied times-frac0.4

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