Detail solution

The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
1. Let $u = - x$ .
2. The derivative of $e^{u}$ is itself.
3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} \left(- x\right)$ :
  1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
    1. Apply the power rule: $x$ goes to $1$
    So, the result is: $-1$
  The result of the chain rule is:
  
  $- e^{- x}$
So, the result is: $- \frac{e^{- x}}{2}$

The answer is:

$- \frac{e^{- x}}{2}$
