Q. A curve is defined by the parametric equations x(t)=10t2+6t x(t)=-10 t^{2}+6 t and y(t)=4t38t2 y(t)=-4 t^{3}-8 t^{2} . Find dydx \frac{d y}{d x} .\newlineAnswer:
  1. Find Derivative of x(t)x(t): Find the derivative of x(t)x(t) with respect to tt, denoted as dxdt\frac{dx}{dt}. The derivative of x(t)=10t2+6tx(t) = -10t^2 + 6t is found using the power rule for derivatives. dxdt=ddt(10t2+6t)=20t+6\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(-10t^2 + 6t) = -20t + 6.
  2. Find Derivative of y(t)y(t): Find the derivative of y(t)y(t) with respect to tt, denoted as dydt\frac{dy}{dt}. The derivative of y(t)=4t38t2y(t) = -4t^3 - 8t^2 is found using the power rule for derivatives. dydt=ddt(4t38t2)=12t216t\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(-4t^3 - 8t^2) = -12t^2 - 16t.
  3. Find Derivative dydx\frac{dy}{dx}: Find the derivative of yy with respect to xx, denoted as dydx\frac{dy}{dx}. The derivative dydx\frac{dy}{dx} is the ratio of dydt\frac{dy}{dt} to dxdt\frac{dx}{dt}. dydx=dydt/dxdt\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{dy}{dt} / \frac{dx}{dt}. Substitute the derivatives from Step 11 and Step 22. dydx=12t216t20t+6\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-12t^2 - 16t}{-20t + 6}.
  4. Simplify dydx\frac{dy}{dx}: Simplify the expression for dydx\frac{dy}{dx} if possible.dydx=12t216t20t+6\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-12t^2 - 16t}{-20t + 6} cannot be simplified further without specific values of tt.
