FOR the first doubt , u dont have to know how to derive it
just memories it like a^x = dy/dx=a^xlna
and for the second doubt, u differentiate the whole equ.
2x+8y(dy/dx)-6-16(dy/dx)=0
make dy/dx subject of the formula
dy/dx=(6-2x)/(8y-16)
dy/dx=0
so , x=3
now substitute the x value in the original equ and solve
y= 1 or 3
so the coordinates are (3,1) , (3,3)
