    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given the function

    y = (9x⁴ - 4x² + 6) ⁴

    We need to find the derivative of y with respect to x i. e. dy/dx.

    So let u = 9x⁴-4x² + 6

    Then y = u²,

    Then, y is a function of u, y=f (u)

    Also, u is a function of x, u = g (x)

    In this case,

    u = g (x) = 9x⁴-4x² + 6

    So let differentiate this function y (x).

    This is a function of a function

    Then, we need to find u' (x)

    u (x) = 9x⁴-4x² + 6

    Then, u' (x) = 36x³ - 8x

    Also we need to find y' (u)

    Then, y = u²

    y' (u) = 2u

    Using function of a function formula

    dy / dx = dy/du * du/dx

    y' (x) = y' (u) * u' (x)

    y' (x) = 2u * 36x³ - 8x

    y' (x) = 2u (36x³ - 8x)

    Since, u = 9x⁴-4x² + 6

    Therefore,

    y' (t) = 2 (9x⁴-4x² + 6) (36x³ - 8x)

    So,

    dy/dx = 2 (9x⁴-4x² + 6) (36x³ - 8x)

    dy/dx = (18x⁴-8x² + 12) (36x³ - 8x)
