dy/dx ln(xy)=x^2-x
but what about the other side of the equal sign?
Wait, what do you have to do exactly in this problem?
it says consider the relation ln(xy)=xy^2-x find dy/dx
Are you sure it's dy/dx ln(xy)=x²-x, not d/dx ln(xy)=x²-x? you can just divide both sides by ln(xy) then replace it to xy²-x
im sure. it says: consider the relation ln(xy)=xy^2-x find dy/dx
\[\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{x^2-x}{\ln(xy)} = \dfrac{x^2 - x}{xy^2 - x}\]Factor x out in both numerator and denominator:\[\dfrac{x(x-1)}{x(y^2-1)} = \boxed{\dfrac{x-1}{y^2-1}}\]
is this clear?
im just trying to figure out where the numbers came from is all
Oh and after that it says find the equation of the line tangent to the graph of the relation at the point (1,1) how do I do that?
