-(10/(2x+1)+1/x)

Explanation:

differentiate using the color(blue)"chain rule" on each term.

color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)([d/dxln(f(x))]=1/(f(x))xxf'(x))color(white)(2/2)|)))

d/dx(-5ln(2x+1))=-5. 1/(2x+1).d/dx(2x+1)

=-10/(2x+1)

"and " d/dx(-ln(2x))=-1/(2x).d/dx(2x)=-1/x

rArr-(10/(2x+1)+1/x)" is the derivative"
