find the diffrential of 3sin2x+4cos2x

dy/dx=6cos2x-8sin2xExplanation: cos x difrentiates to -sinx, we must times the coefficient of cos2x,(4) , by the differential of 2x (ie 2), giving -(4x2)sin2x.Similarly, sinx differentiates cosx, so using the same method, the sin term differentiates to (3x2)cos2x.

Consider the curve y=x/(x+4)^0.5. (i) Show that the derivative of the curve is given by dy/dx= (x+8)/2(x+4)^3/2 and (ii) hence find the coordinates of the intersection between the left vertical asymptote and the line tangent to the curve at the origin.
