I am confused why this answer is is wrong. Can I get an explanation?
![Find \( f'(a) \).
\[ f(t) = \frac{1}{t^2 + 5} \]
An incorrect attempt is shown:
\[ y = -\frac{2t}{\left(t^2 + 5\right)^2} \]
A red cross is displayed next to the incorrect solution, indicating that it is not the correct derivative of the function \( f(t) \).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fe6d7b9ce-d2f0-4e06-b3ff-298d284fb108%2Fff3b4a6a-53d0-46a1-838b-15282a30e565%2Fs3yw4wp_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
