Answer

$y'=-\dfrac{1}{2}x^{-3/2}\sec(2x)^2 +8x^{1/2}\sec(2x)^2\tan(2x)^2 $

Work Step by Step

Given that $y=(x)^{-1/2}\sec(2x)^2 $ Apply derivative rules of differentiation: $f(x)=p'(x)q(x)+p(x)q'(x)$ $y'=\dfrac{d}{dx}[(x)^{-1/2}\sec(2x)^2 ]$ $=-\dfrac{1}{2x^{3/2}}\sec(2x)^2 +\dfrac{1}{x^{1/2}}\sec(2x)^2\tan(2x)^2 ]\dfrac{d}{dx}[(2x)^2 ]$ $=-\dfrac{1}{2x^{3/2}}\sec(2x)^2 +\dfrac{1}{x^{1/2}}\sec(2x)^2\tan(2x)^2 ](8x)$ Hence, $y'=-\dfrac{1}{2}x^{-3/2}\sec(2x)^2 +8x^{1/2}\sec(2x)^2\tan(2x)^2 $
