Implicit? :) Ooo these are fun!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this right ? y'(2x + secy tany) = 0

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Hmmm no

:P okay how about now 2xy + x^2y'+ y' secy tany = 0

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Mmm k looks better! :) Now solve for y', ya?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay sorry my computer keeps overheating , anyway im getting (-2xy)/(x^2 + secy tany)

zepdrix (zepdrix):

yay good job \c:/
