Derivative of y=sqrt(4x+9)

1. Let $u = 4 x + 9$.

2. Apply the power rule: $\sqrt{u}$ goes to $\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{u}}$

3. Then, apply the chain rule. Multiply by $\frac{d}{d x} \left(4 x + 9\right)$:

   1. Differentiate $4 x + 9$ term by term:

      1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.

         1. Apply the power rule: $x$ goes to $1$

         So, the result is: $4$

      2. The derivative of the constant $9$ is zero.

      The result is: $4$

   The result of the chain rule is:

   $$\frac{2}{\sqrt{4 x + 9}}$$

4. Now simplify:

   $$\frac{2}{\sqrt{4 x + 9}}$$

The answer is:
