find dy/dx ........

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if y\[y(x^2-1)=x \sqrt{x^2 +4}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats the question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u kNow Implicit Differentiation ?

Parth (parthkohli):

Hmm, I wonder if you could do this:\[y = \frac{x\sqrt{x^2 + 4}}{x^2 - 1}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ParthKohli if we differentiate both sides rather than this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah just do implicit differentiation like @Yahoo! said

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[y(x^2-1)=x \sqrt{x^2 +4}\] \[\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\left( y\times (x^2-1)\right)=\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\left(x \times\sqrt{x^2 +4}\right)\] \[\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} \times (x^2-1)+y\times \frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx} (x^2-1)=\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dx} \times\sqrt{x^2 +4}+x\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\left(\sqrt{x^2 +4}\right) \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got it so far!!

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

yeah i've just use the product rule , can you simplify those derivatives?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i can but the result (answer) is not same as i want!!

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

can you shown me some of your working

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 is cancel by 2

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

where did you get this term from ? |dw:1357552600759:dw|
