Step-by-step Solution
1
Apply the quotient rule for differentiation, which states that if $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ are functions and $h(x)$ is the function defined by ${\displaystyle h(x) = \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}}$, where ${g(x) \neq 0}$, then ${\displaystyle h'(x) = \frac{f'(x) \cdot g(x) - g'(x) \cdot f(x)}{g(x)^2}}$
$\frac{\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^2+x-2\right)\left(x^2+5x+6\right)-\left(x^2+x-2\right)\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^2+5x+6\right)}{\left(x^2+5x+6\right)^2}$
2
Simplify the product $-(x^2+x-2)$
$\frac{\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^2+x-2\right)\left(x^2+5x+6\right)+\left(-x^2-\left(x-2\right)\right)\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^2+5x+6\right)}{\left(x^2+5x+6\right)^2}$
3
Simplify the product $-(x-2)$
$\frac{\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^2+x-2\right)\left(x^2+5x+6\right)+\left(-x^2-x+2\right)\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^2+5x+6\right)}{\left(x^2+5x+6\right)^2}$
4
The derivative of a sum of two or more functions is the sum of the derivatives of each function
$\frac{\left(\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^2\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(x\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(-2\right)\right)\left(x^2+5x+6\right)+\left(-x^2-x+2\right)\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^2+5x+6\right)}{\left(x^2+5x+6\right)^2}$
