Answer

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 2e^{(4 \sqrt x + x^{2})} \times (\frac{1}{\sqrt x} + x)$

Work Step by Step

$y = e^{u}$ where, $u = 4 \sqrt x + x^{2}$ Now, $\frac{dy}{du} = e^{u}$ and, $\frac{du}{dx} = \frac{2}{\sqrt x} + 2x$ So, $\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{dy}{du} \times \frac{du}{dx}$ $\frac{dy}{dx} = e^{u} \times (\frac{2}{\sqrt x} + 2x)$ $\frac{dy}{dx} = 2e^{(4 \sqrt x + x^{2})} \times (\frac{1}{\sqrt x} + x)$
