Detail solution
  1. Apply the quotient rule, which is:

    ddxf(x)g(x)=f(x)ddxg(x)+g(x)ddxf(x)g2(x)\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(x)=x2f{\left(x \right)} = x^{2} and g(x)=2xg{\left(x \right)} = 2 - x.

    To find ddxf(x)\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}:

    1. Apply the power rule: x2x^{2} goes to 2x2 x

    To find ddxg(x)\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}:

    1. Differentiate 2x2 - x term by term:

      1. The derivative of the constant 22 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: xx goes to 11

        So, the result is: 1-1

      The result is: 1-1

    Now plug in to the quotient rule:

    x2+2x(2x)(2x)2\frac{x^{2} + 2 x \left(2 - x\right)}{\left(2 - x\right)^{2}}

  2. Now simplify:

    x(4x)(x2)2\frac{x \left(4 - x\right)}{\left(x - 2\right)^{2}}


The answer is:

x(4x)(x2)2\frac{x \left(4 - x\right)}{\left(x - 2\right)^{2}}
