6 Given that \(y = 6 x ^ { 3 } + \frac { 4 } { \sqrt { x } } + 5 x\), find
  1. \(\frac { \mathrm { d } y } { \mathrm {~d} x }\),
  2. \(\frac { \mathrm { d } ^ { 2 } y } { \mathrm {~d} x ^ { 2 } }\).
    \(7 \quad A\) is the point \(( 5,7 )\) and \(B\) is the point \(( - 1 , - 5 )\).
  3. Find the coordinates of the mid-point of the line segment \(A B\).
  4. Find an equation of the line through \(A\) that is perpendicular to the line segment \(A B\), giving your answer in the form \(a x + b y + c = 0\) where \(a , b\) and \(c\) are integers.
