  1. Given that \(y=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2{{\mathrm{e}}^{x}}-1}}\), show that
    1. \(\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x}=-{{y}^{3}}{{\mathrm{e}}^{x}}\),[2]
    2. \(y\frac{{{\mathrm{d}}^{2}}y}{\mathrm{d}{{x}^{2}}}=y\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x}+3{{\left( \frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} \right)}^{2}}\).[2]
  2. Find \(\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}x}\left( \ln \left( \frac{2x}{\sqrt{{{x}^{2}}+1}} \right) \right)\).[2]
