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

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

Solution steps

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

Apply exponent rule:

\frac{1}{a} = a^{- 1}

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

Apply the chain rule:

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

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

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

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

Simplify

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