I have a difference of opinion with 2 calculation engines.

equation to solve is;
d/dx (a(x^2 +y)

Wolframalpha of course is a very trusted source but I also use symbolab.
Here is a screenshot of the differential I want from both sites and associated answers.

. . . and the wolfram solution

could anyone please confirm which is correct.
Personally I like the symbolab solution.
