What is the derivative of arcsin(4x+2)?


Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution


I just want to check that I'm doing this correctly; my teacher didn't give me any examples to try.

I get 4 / ([tex]\sqrt{1-(4x-2)^2}[/tex])

Is that right?
EDIT: Just realized I posted this in precal math, sorry! =(

Why do you have (4x-2) in the radical? Typo, right? Otherwise, it's fine.
 
Whoops, it's supposed to say 4x+2. It's still supposed to be in the radical, though.
