technically cant be done
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it has to equal something
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x^2 secy must equal something
OpenStudy (anonymous):
= y^2 +1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x^2 (cosy)^-1 = y^2 +1

rewritting sec as cos^-1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh i used the product rule
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeh, it is correct
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(2x)(secy) but i dont know whts goes in the next bracket
OpenStudy (anonymous):
because y depends on x , x^2 (cosy)^-1 needs to be differenitated as product

secytany(x^2)y'
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so then it'll be 2yy' = 2xsecy+x^2secytany*y'
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so LHS:
let u= x^2
du/dx = 2x
v= (cos(y))^-1
dv/dx = -1 ( cos(y) )^-2 * -sin(y) (dy/dx)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so the LHS = 2x (cosy)^-1 +(x^2sin(y) (sec(y))^2 ) dy/dx
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and the RHS will equal 2y dy/dx

\[2xsec(y) +x^2\sin(y)\sec^2(y)\frac{dy}{dx} = 2y \frac{dy}{dx}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
solve for the dy/dx
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok i understand thank you so much
