Solution

To find f'(-1), we first need to find the derivative of the function f(x) = x - 1/x.

The derivative of x with respect to x is 1.

The derivative of -1/x with respect to x is 1/x^2.

So, the derivative of the function f(x) = x - 1/x is f'(x) = 1 + 1/x^2.

Now, to find f'(-1), we substitute x = -1 into the derivative function:

f'(-1) = 1 + 1/(-1)^2 = 1 + 1 = 2.

So, f'(-1) = 2.
