$f''(x)=\frac{-6}{x^4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x)=\frac{-1}{x^2}$

find the first derivative

$f(x)=-1x^{-2}$

Apply power rule to find derivative

derivative of a^n = n a^ (n-1)

$f'(x)=-1(-2)x^{-3}$

$f'(x)=2x^{-3}$

now we take second derivative, apply same chain rule

$f'(x)=2x^{-3}$

$f''(x)=2(-3)x^{-4}$

$f''(x)=\frac{-6}{x^4}$
