Differentiate y =cos^4(x)

Let u = cos xdu/dx = -sin xy = u 4 dy/du = 4u 3 dy/dx = dy/du * du/dx = (4u 3 ) * (-sin x) = 4 cos 3 x * -sin x = -4 cos 3 x sin x

Differentiate y=3x^2+2x+4 and find the stationary points, decide if it is a local maximum or minimum.

First Differentiate the equation to getdy/dx=6x+2Equal this to 0 to find the stationary pointdy/dx=0=6x+2 => 6x=-2=> x=-2/6=> x=-1/3 differentiate again to find the whether it is a maximum or minimu...
