How do I find dy/dx in terms of x and y of the equation x^(5)+y^(3)+2xy^(2)=33?
jts differentiate it,answer will come itself
\[5x^4+3y^2y'+2(y^2+2xy')=0\] solve for \(y'\)
How did you get \[2(y ^{2}+2xy')?\]
product rule and of course the chain rule i can explain further if you like
oh no i can't because i made a mistake good catch
should be \(2(y ^{2}+2xyy')\)
Okay, that's what I got, but how do you know where to put y'?
you are thinking of \(y\) as some (unspecified) function of \(x\) i.e. \(y=y(x)\)
but suppose for a moment that we knew \(y=\sin(x)\) then how would you take the derivative of \[2x\sin^2(x)?\] you need the product rule and the chain rule
you would get \[2(\sin^2(x)+2x\sin(x)\cos(x))\]
we don't know what \(y\) is, but if i replace \(\sin(x)\) by \(y\) in the above, i get \[2(y^2+2xyy')\]
So I solved for y'..does it look right? \[\frac{ (-5x ^{4} + 2y ^{2} ) }{ (3y ^{2} + 4xy) }\]
i don't know i didn't actually do it
yeah that looks good
