Yes, it is straight forward once you see that $5x^5 + 40 = 40 + 5x^5 = 5(8 + x^5).$

$\dfrac{-\ 4(x^5 - 2)}{(8 + x^5)^2 * \sqrt{\dfrac{x}{5x^5 + 40}}} = \dfrac{4(2 - x^5)}{(8 + x^5)^2 * \sqrt{\dfrac{x}{5x^5 + 40}}} = \dfrac{4(2 - x^5)}{ \sqrt{(8 + x^5 )^4} * \sqrt{\dfrac{x}{5x^5 + 40}}} =$

$\dfrac{4(2 - x^5)}{\sqrt{(8 + x^5)^4} * \sqrt{\dfrac{x}{5(8 + x^5)}}} = \dfrac{4(2 - x^5)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{x(8 + x^5)^4}{5(8 + x^5)}}} = \dfrac{4(2 - x^5)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{x(8 + x^5)^3}{5}}} =$

$\dfrac{4(2 - x^5)}{\dfrac{\sqrt{x(8 + x^5)^3}}{\sqrt{5}}} = \dfrac{4 \sqrt{5} * (2 - x^5)}{\sqrt{x(8 + x^5)^3}}.$
