(Equation Coming Soon) Determine whether the given relation is an implicit solution to the given differential equation. Assume that the relationship does define y implicitly as a function of x and use implicit differentiation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[y- \ln y = x ^{2}+1\]\[\frac{ dy }{ dx }=\frac{ 2xy }{ y-1 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

implicit differentiation, from my understanding means set the above equation to 0 and differentiate it. If it matches the below equation then it is a solution.

@Hero @TuringTest DIff EQ Help

OpenStudy (turingtest):

no setting to zero, it means when you differentiate a function of y wrt x you use the chain rule

OpenStudy (turingtest):

for example y^2=x+y derivative implicit wrtx is (2y)y'=1+y' we could solve this for the derivative y', which is what they want you to do

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you briefly refresh me on the chain rule.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ dy }{ dx }-\frac{ 1 }{ y }\frac{ dy }{ dx }=2x\]?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

for compound functions like\[(3x+1)^2\]the derivative requires the chain rule derivative of outside function times derivative of inside function\[2(3x+1)(3)\]and yes to your attempt

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so\[\frac{ dy }{ dx }(1-\frac{ 1 }{ y })=2x\]i did get this far on my own but I can't seem to get it to match the differential equation above. The book says it should be a solution.

OpenStudy (turingtest):

it's just algebra dude, get a common denominator :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think I am fogetting some basic algebra when dividing

OpenStudy (turingtest):

\[1\frac yy=\frac yy\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

got it. im embarassed. Forgot the easy stuff when working with the hard stuff. unforgivable

OpenStudy (turingtest):

it happens to the best of us ;)
