(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.
\[y- \ln y = x ^{2}+1\]\[\frac{ dy }{ dx }=\frac{ 2xy }{ y-1 }\]
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
no setting to zero, it means when you differentiate a function of y wrt x you use the chain rule
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
can you briefly refresh me on the chain rule.
ok
\[\frac{ dy }{ dx }-\frac{ 1 }{ y }\frac{ dy }{ dx }=2x\]?
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
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.
it's just algebra dude, get a common denominator :P
I think I am fogetting some basic algebra when dividing
\[1\frac yy=\frac yy\]
got it. im embarassed. Forgot the easy stuff when working with the hard stuff. unforgivable
it happens to the best of us ;)
