Q. If −x2−x−5y2+y3=2y then find dxdy in terms of x and y.Answer: dxdy=
Differentiate Terms: Differentiate both sides of the equation with respect to x. We will use implicit differentiation because y is a function of x. Differentiate each term on the left side: dxd(−x2)=−2xdxd(−x)=−1dxd(−5y2)=−10ydxdy because we need to use the chain rule for differentiation of y with respect to x. dxd(y3)=3y2dxdy for the same reason as above. Differentiate the right side: dxd(2y)=2dxdy
Write Differentiated Equation: Write down the differentiated equation.−2x−1−10ydxdy+3y2dxdy=2dxdy
Collect Terms: Collect all dxdy terms on one side and the remaining terms on the other side.−10y(dxdy)+3y2(dxdy)−2(dxdy)=2x+1
Factor Out dxdy: Factor out dxdy on the left side of the equation.dxdy(−10y+3y2−2)=2x+1
Solve for dxdy: Solve for dxdy.dxdy=−10y+3y2−22x+1
