Question
### Problem Statement

Consider the function:

\[ y = (2x^2 + 1)^3 \]

#### (a) Decomposition

Decompose the function in the form \( y = f(u) \) and \( u = g(x) \). Use non-identity functions for \( f(u) \) and \( u \).

\[ \{f(u), u\} = \{ \quad \} \text{ (Incorrect)} \]

#### (b) Differentiation

Find \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) as a function of \( x \).

\[ \frac{dy}{dx} = 12x(2x^2 + 1)^2 \]

The derivative is marked as correct.
