**1. Derivative of $$y=\frac{1}{(3-x)^4}$$**

Write the function as  
$$
y = (3-x)^{-4}.
$$  
Differentiate using the chain rule:  
$$
\frac{dy}{dx} = -4(3-x)^{-5} \cdot \frac{d}{dx}(3-x).
$$  
Since  
$$
\frac{d}{dx}(3-x) = -1,
$$  
we have  
$$
\frac{dy}{dx} = -4(3-x)^{-5} \cdot (-1) = 4(3-x)^{-5} = \frac{4}{(3-x)^5}.
$$

**2. Derivative of $$y=\ln x$$**

Differentiate with respect to $$x$$:  
$$
\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{x}.
$$

**3. Derivative of $$y=\cos(x^2)$$**

Apply the chain rule. Let  
$$
u=x^2 \quad \text{so that} \quad y=\cos(u).
$$  
Differentiate:  
$$
\frac{dy}{du} = -\sin(u) \quad \text{and} \quad \frac{du}{dx} = 2x.
$$  
Then,  
$$
\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{dy}{du} \cdot \frac{du}{dx} = -\sin(x^2) \cdot 2x = -2x\sin(x^2).
