You could say that this is the same thing as, and I'm just gonna focus on what's inside the parentheses or inside the brackets. This is the same thing as x to the negative one times x squared plus two x minus five. And then you might want to apply the product rule, but there's even a better simplification here. You could just divide each of these terms by x, or one way to think about it, distribute this one over x across all the terms. x to the negative one is the same thing as one over x. And if you do that, x squared divided by x is going to be x. Two x divided by x is going to be two.
