$1-cosh\left(x\right)$

## Step by step solution

Problem

$\frac{d}{dx}\left(x-\frac{1}{x}\right)$
1

The derivative of a sum of two functions is the sum of the derivatives of each function

$\frac{d}{dx}\left(-\frac{1}{x}\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(x\right)$
2

The derivative of the linear function is equal to $1$

$\frac{d}{dx}\left(-\frac{1}{x}\right)+1$
3

The derivative of a function multiplied by a constant is equal to the constant times the derivative of the function

$1-\frac{d}{dx}\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)$
4

Taking the derivative of the hyperbolic sine

$1-\frac{d}{dx}\left(x\right)cosh\left(x\right)$
5

The derivative of the linear function is equal to $1$

$1-1\cdot 1cosh\left(x\right)$
6

Multiply $1$ times $-1$

$1-cosh\left(x\right)$

$1-cosh\left(x\right)$
