Solution
\[\text{ We have, y } = x\left| x \right|\]
\[ \Rightarrow y = x\left( - x \right) \left( \because x < 0 \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow y = - x^2\]
\[\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx}\left( - x^2 \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx} = - 2x\]

Disclaimer: There is a misprint in the question,
\[\left( x^2 + 1 \right)\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2} + x\frac{d y}{d x} - n^2 y = 0\] must be written instead of
\[\left( x^2 - 1 \right)\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2} + x\frac{d y}{d x} - n^2 y = 0 \] ?
