At the risk of telling you precisely what you asked not to hear,
the amount of Mathematica you would need to learn in order to solve
this is miniscule. I expect all you would need to do is type
in the equations and call "Simplify[y']".

It'd almost certainly be faster than pencil and paper or the binomial
theorem. I'd be happy to walk you through the syntax if you change
your mind...
