Prove differential form of Lagrangian
How to derive the Lagrangian differential force?

$$\frac{d}{dt}(\frac{\partial L}{\partial \dot{x}})+\frac{\partial L}{\partial x}=0$$

I was trying to do something.

$$L=T-U=\frac{1}{2} m\dot{x}^2-\frac{1}{2}kx^2$$
$$\frac{\partial L}{\partial \dot{x}}=m\dot{x}$$
$$\frac{\partial L}{\partial x}=-kx$$

$$\frac{d}{dt}\frac{\partial L}{\partial \ddot{x}}=m\ddot{x} (t)$$
So, I can write that
$$m\ddot{x}(t)-kx$$

But, how can I prove that it's equal to $0$. I should find the equation from somewhere else. What's that?
