How do you find the derivative of #y^2-3xy+x^2=7#?
1 Answer
Differentiate each term.
When a term is a function of y, treat
After differentiating, solve for
Explanation:
Given:
Differentiate each term:
The derivative of the constant term is 0:
For the first term, I shall use the chain rule,
Returning to the equation:
For the second term, I shall use the linear property of the derivative and the product rule:
Returning to the equation:
For the third term, I shall use the power rule,
Solve for
