\frac{6 - 1}{ - 2 - a}  =  \frac{9 - 1}{ - 12 - a - 2}  \\  \frac{5}{ - 2 - a}  =  \frac{8}{ - 14 - a}  \\ 16 + 8a = 70 + 5a \\ 3a = 54 >  > a = 18

Find dy/dx if y=(4x^2-5x)^8
musickatia [10]

dy/dx = 8(8x - 5)(4x² - 5x )^ 7

differentiate using the ' chain rule '

dy/dx = 8(4x² - 5x)^ 7 × d/dx (4x² - 5x)

         = 8(4x² - 5x)^ 7  × (8x - 5)

         = 8(8x - 5)(4x² - 5x)^{7}
