if
x ln(y) - y ln(x) = 1 then
prove\[[\frac{ dy }{ dx}]_{x=1} = e( e -1)\]

@phi , @ganeshie8 , @hartnn could u guys lend me a hand

@tukitw
OpenStudy (phi):
This looks like you should use implicit differentiation

\(\dfrac{d}{dx}\left(x\cdot f(x)\right) = x\left(\dfrac{d}{dx}f(x)\right) + \left(\dfrac{d}{dx}x\right)f(x)\)
By the Product Rule. Let's see what you get.
OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):
ok ... i can go as far as here ....
OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):
\[\frac{ dy }{ dx } = \frac{ \frac{ y }{ x } - lny }{ \frac{ x }{ y } - \ln x}\]
OpenStudy (phi):
replace x with 1
OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):
how to remove y from this ?

your answer is in terms of y. to get rid of the y
use
x ln(y) - y ln(x) = 1 evaluated at x=1 to solve for y

I think there is something to do with this
