A curve C has equation: y = x^2 − 2x − 24x^1/2, x > 0; Find (i) dy/dx (ii) d^2y/dx^2

i) let dy/dx = ans, where ans = y, where you multiply the coefficients of each constant of x by the power and reduce the power by 1 in the equation ytherefore dy/dx = 2x - 2 - 12x-1/2ii) repeat the process described above to find the second derivativetherefore d2y/dx2 = 2 + 6x-3/2
