Detail solution
  1. Apply the product rule:

    ddxf(x)g(x)=f(x)ddxg(x)+g(x)ddxf(x)\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} g{\left(x \right)} = f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}

    f(x)=xf{\left(x \right)} = x; to find ddxf(x)\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}:

    1. Apply the power rule: xx goes to 11

    g(x)=e1xg{\left(x \right)} = e^{\frac{1}{x}}; to find ddxg(x)\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}:

    1. Let u=1xu = \frac{1}{x}.

    2. The derivative of eue^{u} is itself.

    3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by ddx1x\frac{d}{d x} \frac{1}{x}:

      1. Apply the power rule: 1x\frac{1}{x} goes to 1x2- \frac{1}{x^{2}}

      The result of the chain rule is:

      e1xx2- \frac{e^{\frac{1}{x}}}{x^{2}}

    The result is: e1xe1xxe^{\frac{1}{x}} - \frac{e^{\frac{1}{x}}}{x}

  2. Now simplify:

    (x1)e1xx\frac{\left(x - 1\right) e^{\frac{1}{x}}}{x}


The answer is:

(x1)e1xx\frac{\left(x - 1\right) e^{\frac{1}{x}}}{x}
