From the first equation
6x - y = 1
6x - y - 1 = 0
6x - 1 = y

Substituting we get
4x - 3(6x - 1) = -11

You can actually use either the product rule or the chain rule for this one. Observe:

• Method I:

y = cos² x

y = cos x · cos x

Differentiate it by applying the product rule:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{d}{dx}(cos\,x\cdot cos\,x)}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{d}{dx}(cos\,x)\cdot cos\,x+cos\,x\cdot \dfrac{d}{dx}(cos\,x)}$

The derivative of cos x is – sin x. So you have

$\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=(-sin\,x)\cdot cos\,x+cos\,x\cdot (-sin\,x)}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=-sin\,x\cdot cos\,x-cos\,x\cdot sin\,x}$

$\therefore~~\boxed{\begin{array}{c}\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=-2\,sin\,x\cdot cos\,x}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

—————

• Method II:

You can also treat y as a composite function:

$\left\{\!
\begin{array}{l}
\mathsf{y=u^2}\\\\
\mathsf{u=cos\,x}
\end{array}
\right.$

and then, differentiate y by applying the chain rule:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{dy}{du}\cdot \dfrac{du}{dx}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{d}{du}(u^2)\cdot \dfrac{d}{dx}(cos\,x)}$

For that first derivative with respect to u, just use the power rule, then you have

$\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=2u^{2-1}\cdot \dfrac{d}{dx}(cos\,x)}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=2u\cdot (-sin\,x)\qquad\quad (but~~u=cos\,x)}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=2\,cos\,x\cdot (-sin\,x)}$

and then you get the same answer:

$\therefore~~\boxed{\begin{array}{c}\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=-2\,sin\,x\cdot cos\,x}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

I hope this helps. =)
