find the derivative of x^3 + y^3 = 6xy
OpenStudy (camper4834):
by implicit differentiation?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\frac{ d }{ dx } (x^3) + \frac{ d }{ dx } (y^3) = \frac{ d }{ dx } (6xy)\]
so,
\[3x^2 + 3y^2 \frac{ dy }{ dx } = 6x \frac{ dy }{ dx } + 6y\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and now i can find dy/dx
OpenStudy (camper4834):
looks good so far

put the dy/dx on the same side and factor out
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i do think it's
\[\frac{ 2y-x^2 }{ y^2 - 2x }\]
OpenStudy (camper4834):
its what i got
OpenStudy (camper4834):
looks good
OpenStudy (camper4834):
now do they not want y in the equation?

well,another one:
x^3 + y^4 = 16 find \[y ^{''}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no i have to only find dy/dx
OpenStudy (camper4834):
idk sometimes the question wants you to make it only x's
OpenStudy (camper4834):
anyway continue

i can do it from the equation x^3 + y^3 = 6xy i'll have to find y and then plug in that instead of y
OpenStudy (camper4834):
yeah but only do it if the question says so XD i was just asking
OpenStudy (anonymous):
d/dx (x^4) + d/dx (y^3) = 0
OpenStudy (anonymous):
let me write whatever i've done...
OpenStudy (camper4834):
now a couple things. in the thing you just wrote you changed x^3 to x^4 and same with y
and it should be d/dy

and x^4 + y^4 = 16 so it would be
- 32 x^2/y^7
OpenStudy (camper4834):
im not sure what is the correct equation.... is this new one the correct one?
OpenStudy (camper4834):
are both the exponents 4?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what do you mean?

OpenStudy (camper4834):
first you wrote x^3 + y^4
OpenStudy (camper4834):
then you wrote x^4 + y^3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sry i made a mistake,the equation which i had to find y'' was x^4 + y^4 = 16
OpenStudy (camper4834):
okay
OpenStudy (camper4834):
be careful on the one where you took out -3 the sign on the INSIDE should change to negative

but you fixed it on the next part? so i guess you are okay
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh ok,
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well thank you ;)
OpenStudy (camper4834):
oh and the one you typed has an extra 2
OpenStudy (camper4834):
you wrote -32
but your answer in the picture is perfect

sry - 48
OpenStudy (camper4834):
?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i should have written x^4 + y^4 = 16 so (-3)(16) x^2 / y^7 and (-3)(16) = -48 but i wrote 32 and it's not correct ...
OpenStudy (camper4834):
-48x^2 / y^7
perfect!

Thank you very much!
