Question

derivative of x^2*y+xy^2=-2?:)

Answer 1

implicit differentiation?

Answer 2

u just need product rule make sure u chain the dy/dx

Answer 3

yeah..lik i know how how to do it..but i dont kno wer to plug in the dy/dx...can ny1 show each step?

Answer 4

whenever u take the derviative of y or y^2 u need to chain the dy/dx

Answer 5

so basically..the answer is (-2x-y^2)/(x^2 +2y)?

Answer 6

Answer 7

so first chunk would be 2xy+(x^2)(dy/dx)+ y^2+(2y)(dy/dx)=0

Answer 8

then use algebra to get dy/dx alone

Answer 9

ohhok..gotcha! thanks a lot again!:)

Answer 10

so move 2xy over and y^2 then devide by x^2+2y

Answer 11

ohhok...thnks:)

Answer 12

np :)
