Question: ASSIGNMENT: DUE: JULY 27, 2026 1.) w.r.t.x. y^3 = 2xy^2 + x^2y 2.) w.r.t.y. y/x = \sqrt{xy} + 3 3.) w.r.t.x. xy = x/y + y/x 4.) w.r.t.y. \left(\frac{x - 3}{y + 3}\right)^2 = 2xy - y 5.) required: y'' \sqrt{x} = \sqrt{y} - x 6.) required: y'' \frac{1}{xy} = 2 - x^2 answer that with complete solution
1. **Problem:** Differentiate implicitly with respect to $x$ the equation $$y^3 = 2xy^2 + x^2y.$$ 2. **Formula and rules:** Use implicit differentiation. Recall the product rule: $$\frac{d}{dx}[uv] = u'v + uv'$$ and chain rule for $y$ as a function of $x$: $$\frac{d}{dx}[y] = y'.$$ 3. **Differentiate both sides:** $$\frac{d}{dx}[y^3] = \frac{d}{dx}[2xy^2 + x^2y]$$ Left side: $$3y^2 y'$$ Right side: Use product rule twice: $$\frac{d}{dx}[2xy^2] = 2(y^2 + x \cdot 2y y') = 2y^2 + 4xy y'$$ $$\frac{d}{dx}[x^2 y] = 2x y + x^2 y'$$ So right side total: $$2y^2 + 4xy y' + 2x y + x^2 y'$$ 4. **Set up the equation:** $$3y^2 y' = 2y^2 + 4xy y' + 2x y + x^2 y'$$ 5. **Group terms with $y'$ on one side:** $$3y^2 y' - 4xy y' - x^2 y' = 2y^2 + 2x y$$ 6. **Factor out $y'$:** $$y'(3y^2 - 4xy - x^2) = 2y^2 + 2x y$$ 7. **Solve for $y'$:** $$y' = \frac{2y^2 + 2x y}{3y^2 - 4xy - x^2}$$ --- **Final answer:** $$\boxed{y' = \frac{2y^2 + 2x y}{3y^2 - 4xy - x^2}}$$ This completes the solution for the first problem.
