Question: 2.) w.r.t. y.
y/x = \sqrt{xy} + 3
1. **State the problem:** Differentiate the equation $$\frac{y}{x} = \sqrt{xy} + 3$$ with respect to $$y$$.
2. **Rewrite the equation:**
$$\frac{y}{x} = (xy)^{\frac{1}{2}} + 3$$
3. **Differentiate both sides with respect to $$y$$:**
- Left side: $$\frac{d}{dy}\left(\frac{y}{x}\right) = \frac{1}{x}$$ since $$x$$ is treated as a constant.
- Right side: Use the chain rule for $$ (xy)^{\frac{1}{2}} $$:
$$\frac{d}{dy} (xy)^{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{1}{2}(xy)^{-\frac{1}{2}} \cdot \frac{d}{dy}(xy)$$
Since $$x$$ is constant,
$$\frac{d}{dy}(xy) = x$$
So,
$$\frac{d}{dy} (xy)^{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{1}{2}(xy)^{-\frac{1}{2}} \cdot x = \frac{x}{2\sqrt{xy}}$$
- Derivative of constant $$3$$ is $$0$$.
4. **Set derivatives equal:**
$$\frac{1}{x} = \frac{x}{2\sqrt{xy}}$$
5. **Simplify:**
Multiply both sides by $$2\sqrt{xy}$$:
$$2\sqrt{xy} \cdot \frac{1}{x} = x$$
$$\frac{2\sqrt{xy}}{x} = x$$
Multiply both sides by $$x$$:
$$2\sqrt{xy} = x^2$$
6. **Square both sides:**
$$4xy = x^4$$
7. **Solve for $$y$$:**
$$y = \frac{x^3}{4}$$
**Final answer:** $$\frac{dy}{dy} = 1$$ (since differentiating $$y$$ with respect to $$y$$ is 1), but the problem was to differentiate the original equation w.r.t. $$y$$, which we did stepwise.
**Summary:** The derivative of the left side w.r.t. $$y$$ is $$\frac{1}{x}$$, and the derivative of the right side w.r.t. $$y$$ is $$\frac{x}{2\sqrt{xy}}$$.
Hence, the differentiation w.r.t. $$y$$ is:
$$\frac{d}{dy}\left(\frac{y}{x}\right) = \frac{d}{dy}\left(\sqrt{xy} + 3\right)$$
or
$$\frac{1}{x} = \frac{x}{2\sqrt{xy}}$$
