$$\frac{1}{x^{10}}$$

1/(x^10)

Detail solution

Let $u = x^{10}$ .
Apply the power rule: $\frac{1}{u}$ goes to $- \frac{1}{u^{2}}$
Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} x^{10}$ :
1. Apply the power rule: $x^{10}$ goes to $10 x^{9}$
The result of the chain rule is:

$- \frac{10}{x^{11}}$

The answer is:

$- \frac{10}{x^{11}}$
