(1 + 2x)/√x

= 1/√x + 2x/√x

= 1/x¹⁄² + 2x/x¹⁄²

= x-¹⁄² + 2x¹-¹⁄²

= x-¹⁄² + 2x¹⁄²

So,

d/dx (1 + 2x)/√x

= d/dx (x-¹⁄² + 2x¹⁄²)

= -½x-¹⁄² -¹ + (½)(2x¹⁄²-¹)


= -½x-³⁄² + x-¹⁄²

= 1/x¹⁄² - 1/(2x³⁄²)

= 1/√x - 1/(2√x³)




Or if you want to leave it as 1 term,

Then

= -½x-³⁄² + x-³⁄²+¹

= -½x-³⁄² + x¹(x-³⁄²)

= (x - ½)(x-³⁄²)

= (x - ½)/x³⁄²

= (x - ½)/√x³

= (2x - 1)/(2√x³)

Alternatively, using product rule,

d/dx (1 + 2x)/√x

= d/dx (1 + 2x) (1/x¹⁄²)

= d/dx (1 + 2x)(x-¹⁄²)

= 2(x-¹⁄²) + (1 + 2x)(-½x-¹⁄²-¹)

= 2/x¹⁄² - ½x-³⁄² - x¹(x-³⁄²)

= 2/x¹⁄² - 1/(2x³⁄²) - x-¹⁄²

= 2/x¹⁄² - 1/(2x³⁄²) - 1/x¹⁄²

= 1/x¹⁄² - 1/(2x³⁄²)

= 1/√x - 1/(2√x³)

Or you can directly use the quotient rule.

The 2x√x would be simplified to 2√x³
