I'm not sure how the first box transforms into the second box. Can someone please explain?mathprob.jpg
 
The expressions inside those two boxes are not equal.

It looks like they multiplied the radicand by x^2/x^2, followed by simplifying outside of the radical the x^2/1 part, leaving the radicand divided by x^2.

In the second box, I don't understand from where the negative sign in front of x comes.
