![**Problem Statement:**
Let the function \( f(x) \) have the property that
\[ f'(x) = \frac{x+1}{x-5}. \]
If \( g(x) = f(x^2), \) find \( g'(x) \).
**Solution:**
To solve for \( g'(x) \), we need to apply the chain rule.
First, let's rewrite \( g(x) \):
\[ g(x) = f(x^2). \]
By the chain rule, the derivative of \( g(x) \) with respect to \( x \) is given by:
\[ g'(x) = \frac{d}{dx} [f(x^2)] = f'(x^2) \cdot \frac{d}{dx} [x^2]. \]
Now compute the derivative of \( x^2 \) with respect to \( x \):
\[ \frac{d}{dx} [x^2] = 2x. \]
Next, substitute \( u = x^2 \) into \( f'(x) \) to find \( f'(x^2) \):
\[ f'(x^2) = \frac{x^2 + 1}{x^2 - 5}. \]
Putting it all together:
\[ g'(x) = \left( \frac{x^2 + 1}{x^2 - 5} \right) \cdot 2x. \]
Thus, the derivative \( g'(x) \) is:
\[ g'(x) = \frac{2x(x^2 + 1)}{x^2 - 5}. \]
So, we have:
\[ g'(x) = \frac{2x(x^2 + 1)}{x^2 - 5}. \]](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F7c82fdeb-8dd9-4e79-ad94-2f87292b7d4d%2Fb77737b4-7026-48aa-87c3-16d65cfde068%2Fzh8mdr_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
