Use implicit differentiation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x^2+y=x^3+y^3\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[2x+y'=3x^2+3y^2y'\] then algebra to solve for \[y'\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok im not sure why y goes to y prime rather than dy/dx this confuses me why does it sometimes go to dy/dx and others it goes to y^1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they are synonyms \[x^2+f(x)=x^3+f^3(x)\]

sam (.sam.):

y'=dy/dx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

easier for me to write \[y'\] than it is to write \[\frac{dy}{dx}\]

sam (.sam.):

both same

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so there is literally no difference because my book uses both

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no difference at all

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha ok, and when you divide yprime by yprime you get y prime?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like saying \[f(x)=x^2,f'(x)=2x\] or \[f(x)=x^2\] \[\frac{dy}{dx}=2x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can use prime notation or leibniz notation they mean the same thing (mostly)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well ok now I've got it down to y^1=3x^2-2x+3y^2(y^1) do i just divide all by y prime?
