(x - 2) 
--------
 x + 1

$$\frac{\left(x - 2\right)^{2}}{x + 1}$$

(x - 2)^2/(x + 1)

Detail solution

Apply the quotient rule, which is:

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

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

To find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. Let $u = x - 2$ .
2. Apply the power rule: $u^{2}$ goes to $2 u$
3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} \left(x - 2\right)$ :
  1. Differentiate $x - 2$ term by term:
    1. The derivative of the constant $-2$ is zero.
    2. Apply the power rule: $x$ goes to $1$
    The result is: $1$
  The result of the chain rule is:
  
  $2 x - 4$
To find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. Differentiate $x + 1$ term by term:
  1. The derivative of the constant $1$ is zero.
  2. Apply the power rule: $x$ goes to $1$
  The result is: $1$
Now plug in to the quotient rule:

$\frac{- \left(x - 2\right)^{2} + \left(x + 1\right) \left(2 x - 4\right)}{\left(x + 1\right)^{2}}$
Now simplify:

$\frac{\left(x - 2\right) \left(x + 4\right)}{\left(x + 1\right)^{2}}$

The answer is:

$\frac{\left(x - 2\right) \left(x + 4\right)}{\left(x + 1\right)^{2}}$

            (1 + x)
