\frac{d}{d x} (ln (x^{2} - 5))

\frac{x}{x ^{2} - 5}

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (ln (x^{2} - 5))

Apply the chain rule:

\frac{1}{x ^{2} - 5} \frac{d}{d x} (x^{2} - 5)

= \frac{1}{x ^{2} - 5} \frac{d}{d x} (x^{2} - 5)

\frac{d}{d x} (x^{2} - 5) = \frac{x}{x ^{2} - 5}

= \frac{1}{x ^{2} - 5} \cdot \frac{x}{x ^{2} - 5}

Simplify

\frac{1}{x ^{2} - 5} \cdot \frac{x}{x ^{2} - 5} : \frac{x}{x ^{2} - 5}

= \frac{x}{x ^{2} - 5}
