derivative of

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

- \frac{4 x}{( 4 x ^{2} + 1 ) ^{\frac{3}{2}}}

Solution steps

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

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

Apply the chain rule:

- \frac{1}{2 ( 4 x ^{2} + 1 ) ^{\frac{3}{2}}} \frac{d}{d x} (4 x^{2} + 1)

= - \frac{1}{2 ( 4 x ^{2} + 1 ) ^{\frac{3}{2}}} \frac{d}{d x} (4 x^{2} + 1)

\frac{d}{d x} (4 x^{2} + 1) = 8 x

= - \frac{1}{2 ( 4 x ^{2} + 1 ) ^{\frac{3}{2}}} \cdot 8 x

Simplify

- \frac{1}{2 ( 4 x ^{2} + 1 ) ^{\frac{3}{2}}} \cdot 8 x : - \frac{4 x}{( 4 x ^{2} + 1 ) ^{\frac{3}{2}}}

= - \frac{4 x}{( 4 x ^{2} + 1 ) ^{\frac{3}{2}}}
