can someone explain how from dy/dt=(2t+1)(3+cos(t^2)) you get yo d^2y/dt^2 @t=4=24.814 every time I try to do the second derivative and plug in 4, I get a different answer

hartnn (hartnn):

what did u get before plugging in 4, as your second derivative ?

OpenStudy (math2400):

i got 2(3+cos(t^2)-2tsin(t^2)(2t+1)

the question is from a calc BC frq. I'm trying to do d atm

|dw:1398856014779:dw| This is a product rule, (fg)' = f'g+fg' And when you do the derivative of the cosine you have to use chain rule.
