Just need to make sure.
evaluate the derivative dy/dx at the point (0,0), for the equation 2x-5x^3y^2+4y=0

i think it is undefined
OpenStudy (anonymous):
my options are 3, -1/2, undefinded, 6, and none of these
OpenStudy (jdoe0001):
hmm what did you get for the \(\cfrac{dy}{dx}\) of \(2x-5x^3y^2+4y=0\) ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I got 2-15x^2y^2

2x - 5x^3y^2 + 4y
^ ^ ^
power rule product rule power rule

i dont understand

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):
\(\bf 2x-5x^3y^2+4y=0\qquad \cfrac{dy}{dx}\implies 2-(15x^2\cdot y^2+5x^3\cdot 2y)+4\\ \quad \\
\cfrac{dy}{dx}\implies -15x^2y^2-10x^3y+6\)

oh ok i did it wrong :/

so now I insert 0 in x and y?
OpenStudy (jdoe0001):
well... that's the derivative equation, the equation for the slope, now to get the slope itself at (0, 0), just set x =0
that'd yield a "y" of 6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so the answer is 6? ... wow I did that very wrong
OpenStudy (jdoe0001):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thank you so much. :)
