\[\frac{1}{\sqrt{x + 1} + \sqrt{x}}\]

Derivation

  1. Initial program 30.3

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

  3. Applied flip--30.1

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

  4. Simplified0.2

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

  5. Final simplification0.2

    \[\leadsto \frac{1}{\sqrt{x + 1} + \sqrt{x}}\]
