derivative of y=(-4x)/y , can anyone help me?
\[\frac{ -4x }{ y }-y = 0 \rightarrow -4x(y)^{-1}-y=0 \rightarrow 4xy ^{-2} \frac{ dy }{ dx }-4y ^{-1}-\frac{ dy }{ dx }\]
\[\frac{ dy }{ dx }(\frac{ 4x }{ y ^{2} }-1) = -\frac{ 4 }{ y } \rightarrow \frac{ \frac{ 4 }{ y } }{ \frac{ 4x }{ y ^{2}-1 } } = \frac{ dy }{ dx } = \frac{ (y ^{2}-1) }{ xy }\]
hopefully this is correct, it's been a while since I've done implicit differentiation.
thnx
nope unfortunately there is nothing like this int he answers
maybe instead of using the quotient rule, it would be easiest to start with \[y^2=-4x\] so you get \[2yy'=-4\] or \[y'=-\frac{2}{y}\]
actually this is the second derivative started with 4x^2+y^2=9
because the results here are not even close to what I have on the sheet
found it!!! -(4x^2+16y^2)/y^3
thanks anyway
