a point moves along a curve Y=\[2x ^{2}+1\] in such a way that the y value is decreasing at the rate of 2 units per second. At what rate is x changing when x=2/3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
answer is decreasing 1/3 units/sec
OpenStudy (anonymous):
? lol
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[y=2x^2+1\]
\[\frac{dy}{dt}=4x\frac{dx}{dt}\] and you are told that \(\frac{dy}{dt}=-2, x=\frac{2}{3}\) solve for \(\frac{dx}{dt}\)

wouldnt that equal -3/4???

@satellite73 can you help me?
OpenStudy (ranga):
yes dx/dt = -3/4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but the answer is -1/3 so i dont think that was the correct equation for what im looking for.
OpenStudy (ranga):
For the set of information you have provided dx/dt = -3/4.
Go through the question carefully and see if there is any typo or missing info.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x actually equals 3/2 thanks
