Question

Find the derivative using the first principles. ​

Answer 1

$~~~~\dfrac{d}{dx} \left( \sqrt[5]{1+x} \right)\\\\\\=\dfrac{d}{dx} (1+x)^{\tfrac 15}\\\\\\=\dfrac 15 \left(1 + x\right)^{\tfrac 15 -1} \cdot \dfrac{d}{dx}(1+x)\\\\\\=\dfrac 15 (1+x)^{-\tfrac 45} \cdot(0+1)\\\\\\=\dfrac{1}{5(1+x)^{\tfrac 45}}$
