$$\frac{- x^{2} - 1}{x}$$

(-x^2 - 1)/x

Detail solution

Apply the quotient rule, which is:

$\frac{d}{d x} \frac{f{\left(x \right)}}{g{\left(x \right)}} = \frac{- f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}}{g^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$

$f{\left(x \right)} = - x^{2} - 1$ and $g{\left(x \right)} = x$ .

To find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. Differentiate $- x^{2} - 1$ term by term:
  1. The derivative of the constant $-1$ is zero.
  2. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
    1. Apply the power rule: $x^{2}$ goes to $2 x$
    So, the result is: $- 2 x$
  The result is: $- 2 x$
To find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. Apply the power rule: $x$ goes to $1$
Now plug in to the quotient rule:

$\frac{1 - x^{2}}{x^{2}}$
Now simplify:

$-1 + \frac{1}{x^{2}}$

The answer is:

$-1 + \frac{1}{x^{2}}$
