OpenStudy (no_ellephant):

use implicit differentiation.

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

if you know what to do...then why can't you do it?

OpenStudy (no_ellephant):

i want to check my answer

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

what's your answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The problem must be with the implicit deferentiation itself, the exercise demands you do it that way. So you donot want an explanation?

OpenStudy (no_ellephant):

i got 2cotxcoty

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think there is no 2 there

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

did you use product rule?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

because if you did...you should get this http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=+dy%2Fdx+of+2sinxcosy%3D1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but the 2 is wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well are you remembering of using the chain rule when derivating the part that contains y?

OpenStudy (no_ellephant):
