Question
![The image presents a mathematical problem related to the calculation of the second derivative of a function. Specifically, it is given that:
\[ y = 2f(g(x)) \]
and the problem asks for the expression of the second derivative \(\frac{d^2 y}{dx^2}\). Below this question, there are four possible answer choices listed as multiple-choice options, each labeled with a circle for selection. The options are as follows:
1. \(\circ \quad f''(g(x)) \cdot g'(x)\)
2. \(\circ \quad f''(g(x)) \cdot [g'(x)]^2\)
3. \(\circ \quad 2 f''(g(x)) \cdot [g'(x)]^2\)
4. \(\circ \quad 2 f''(g(x)) \cdot [g'(x)]^2 + 2 f'(g(x)) \cdot g''(x)\)
The task is to determine the correct mathematical form for the second derivative based on the given function \(y\).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F6bed085c-3ecb-47a6-9147-a081ba32700e%2F71eb57da-8996-41d5-86b6-29530a227fe0%2Flbsrlyk_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
