Detail solution
  1. Differentiate 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: goes to

      So, the result is:

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

      1. Apply the power rule: goes to

      So, the result is:

    The result is:

  2. Now simplify:


The answer is:

The first derivative [src]
     2      
  ___       
\/ a   - 2*x
$$\left(\sqrt{a}\right)^{2} - 2 x$$
The second derivative [src]
-2
$$-2$$
The third derivative [src]
0
$$0$$
