A curve C has equation y = x^2 − 2x − 24 x^(1/2), x > 0. Find dy/dx and d^2y/dx^2. Verify that C has a stationary point when x = 4

Using the differentiation rule that d (Ax^b)/dx = Abx^(b-1) we find dy/dx = 2x -2 -12x^(-1/2).Similarly, taking care to see that the -2 term becomes zero since it is not dependent on x, we haved^2y/dx^2 = 2 ...
