Solve for y, then differentiate to get y' in terms of 'x' ; xy+2x+3x²= 4

\[xy+2x+3x^2=4\]
\[x(y+2+3x)=4\]
\[y+2+3x=\frac{ 4 }{ x }\]
\[y=\frac{ 4 }{ x }-3x-2\]

That was solving for y.
1st step was to factor an x on the left hand side.
Then the second step was divide both sides by x
Then finally minus 2 & 3x from both sides.

any questions? Before I move on to y'
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Hint: to take the derivative of the right hand side (with respect to y) you may use the power rule (I think that's what it's called).

Ohhh okay no no questions.

Thanks btw !
OpenStudy (anonymous):
notice that \[\frac{ 4 }{ x }=4*x ^{-1}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y'=-4x^(-1-1)-3=-4x^-2-3=-4/x^2 -3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
got lazy sorry this is how it is really written
\[y'=-4x ^{-1-1}-3=-4x ^{-2}-3=\frac{ -4 }{ x ^{2} }-3\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ohh okay !! thanks
