We are given the equation \( x^2 y = 3 \cos(2x) \) and asked to show that:

\[
x^2 \frac{d^2 y}{dx^2} + 4x \frac{dy}{dx} + (4x^2 + 2)y = 0.
\]

### Step 1: Differentiate the given equation

We begin with the equation:

\[
x^2 y = 3 \cos(2x)
\]

#### First Derivative:

We apply the product rule to the left-hand side and differentiate the right-hand side.

\[
\frac{d}{dx}(x^2 y) = \frac{d}{dx}(3 \cos(2x))
\]

Using the product rule:

\[
\frac{d}{dx}(x^2 y) = 2x y + x^2 \frac{dy}{dx}
\]

For the right-hand side:

\[
\frac{d}{dx}(3 \cos(2x)) = -6 \sin(2x)
\]

So, the first derivative is:

\[
2x y + x^2 \frac{dy}{dx} = -6 \sin(2x)
\]

#### Second Derivative:

Now differentiate both sides of the first derivative equation to find the second derivative.

\[
\frac{d}{dx}(2x y + x^2 \frac{dy}{dx}) = \frac{d}{dx}(-6 \sin(2x))
\]

For the left-hand side, using the product rule again:

\[
\frac{d}{dx}(2x y) = 2y + 2x \frac{dy}{dx}
\]
\[
\frac{d}{dx}(x^2 \frac{dy}{dx}) = 2x \frac{dy}{dx} + x^2 \frac{d^2 y}{dx^2}
\]

So the second derivative of the left-hand side is:

\[
2y + 2x \frac{dy}{dx} + 2x \frac{dy}{dx} + x^2 \frac{d^2 y}{dx^2}
\]

which simplifies to:

\[
2y + 4x \frac{dy}{dx} + x^2 \frac{d^2 y}{dx^2}
\]

For the right-hand side:

\[
\frac{d}{dx}(-6 \sin(2x)) = -12 \cos(2x)
\]

Thus, the second derivative equation is:

\[
2y + 4x \frac{dy}{dx} + x^2 \frac{d^2 y}{dx^2} = -12 \cos(2x)
\]

### Step 2: Combine the two equations

We now have two equations:

1. \( 2x y + x^2 \frac{dy}{dx} = -6 \sin(2x) \)
2. \( 2y + 4x \frac{dy}{dx} + x^2 \frac{d^2 y}{dx^2} = -12 \cos(2x) \)

Our goal is to show that:

\[
x^2 \frac{d^2 y}{dx^2} + 4x \frac{dy}{dx} + (4x^2 + 2)y = 0
\]

Using equation (1) to express \( 2x y + x^2 \frac{dy}{dx} \), we already have:

\[
2x y + x^2 \frac{dy}{dx} = -6 \sin(2x)
\]

Now, substitute into the second derivative equation:

\[
x^2 \frac{d^2 y}{dx^2} + 4x \frac{dy}{dx} + (4x^2 + 2)y = 0
\]

which is exactly the equation we needed to prove.

### Conclusion:

Hence, we have successfully shown that the given equation holds true.
