\[e^{xy}=\sin (y^2)\]
find y'
OpenStudy (tylerd):
ive done it a few different ways and gotten different answers
OpenStudy (tylerd):
and the calculators online are also giving me different answers so, would like to see how you guys do it.
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
\[d(e^{xy}) = d(\sin(y^2)\]Use the chain rule. \[e^{xy} \cdot d(xy) = d(\sin(y^2) \cdot d(y^2)\]
OpenStudy (aum):
\[
e^{xy} = \sin(y^2) \\
\text{Differentiate with respect to x:} \\
e^{xy} * (xy' + y) = \cos(y^2) * 2y * y' \\
\]Gather up y' terms and solve for y'.

i see
OpenStudy (aum):
\[\large
y' = \frac{ye^{xy}}{2y\cos(y^2)-xe^{xy}}
\]
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
\[e^{xy} \cdot( 1\cdot y +xy') = \cos(y^2) \cdot 2yy'\]\[ye^{xy} +xy'e^{xy} =2yy'\cos(y^2)\]\[-xy'e^{xy} +2yy'\cos(y^2)=ye^{xy}\]\[y'(-xe^{xy} +2y\cos(y^2)=ye^{xy}\]\[y'=\frac{ye^{xy}}{-xe^{xy} +2y\cos(y^2)}\]
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
Eugh, the alignment is off and it looks ugly, but you get the point.
OpenStudy (tylerd):
ya i think i could just leave the negative sign out but

looks about right
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
Why would you leave out the negative sign?
OpenStudy (tylerd):
my teacher doesnt care
OpenStudy (tylerd):
well one sec
OpenStudy (tylerd):
im getting y'=-(e^xy*y)/(e^xy-2ycos(y^2)

or a better way to put it
y'=-(ye^xy)/(e^xy-2ycos(y^2)
OpenStudy (tylerd):
same thing thanks
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
No problem :D
OpenStudy (jhannybean):
thanks for the medal!
