Homework Statement
If function ##f## is defined as such that ##f\left(x\right)=x^{\frac{1}{\sum_{n=1}^∞x^n}}##, then prove that the area enclosed between the the derivative function, ##f'(x)##, and the ##x##-axis is equal to ##1## sq unit
Homework Equations
Knowing that the area under a function ##f(x)## between two can be found by using ##\int_b^a\left|f\left(x\right)\right|dx##
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm having quite a lot of trouble with this question. I know that the first step should be to try and find the points at which the function intercepts the x-axis but I'm unsure of how to do this when the function has an infinite sum in it. Any help with this will be greatly appreciated :)
