Derivation

  1. Initial program 19.4

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

  3. Applied flip--19.5

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

  4. Simplified19.5

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