derivative of

\frac{1 - 2 x}{4 + x}

- \frac{9}{( 4 + x ) ^{2}}

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{1 - 2 x}{4 + x})

Apply the Quotient Rule:

(\frac{f}{g})^{'} = \frac{f ^{'} \cdot g - g ^{'} \cdot f}{g ^{2}}

= \frac{\frac{d}{d x} ( 1 - 2 x ) ( 4 + x ) - \frac{d}{d x} ( 4 + x ) ( 1 - 2 x )}{( 4 + x ) ^{2}}

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

\frac{d}{d x} (4 + x) = 1

= \frac{( - 2 ) ( 4 + x ) - 1 \cdot ( 1 - 2 x )}{( 4 + x ) ^{2}}

Simplify

\frac{( - 2 ) ( 4 + x ) - 1 \cdot ( 1 - 2 x )}{( 4 + x ) ^{2}} : - \frac{9}{( 4 + x ) ^{2}}

= - \frac{9}{( 4 + x ) ^{2}}
