\frac{d}{d x} ((a - x)^{2})

- \frac{a - x}{x}

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} ((a - x)^{2})

Apply the chain rule:

2 (a - x) \frac{d}{d x} (a - x)

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

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

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

Simplify

2 (a - x) (- \frac{1}{2 x}) : - \frac{a - x}{x}

= - \frac{a - x}{x}
