Question

ajspeller · Answer

Use implicit differentiation.

Remember that each time you apply the derivative to a term/factor that has the variable y you have to include a factor of y' or dy/dx

jacksonjrb · Answer

so would I do implicit differentiation twice?

Please show all of your work if you'd like to receive specific feedback on what you've done.

mathmale · Answer

1) find dy/dx
2) find the derivative of your (dy/dx).

jacksonjrb · Answer

I'm doing my work on paper. Can  give you my answer for dy/dx ?

jacksonjrb · Answer

* Can I

mathmale · Answer

Sorry, but no.  Against the rules, and for a good reason.
You could take a snapshot of your work, upload the image to your computer and then upload this image to OpenStudy.

Or you could sketch your work in the Draw utility, below. 

The point is:  You learn by doing; my doing your work for you is hardly educational in the long run.
