assume x=x(t) and y=y(t). Find dx/dt if x^2(y-6) = 12y + 3 and dy/dt = 2 when x = 5 and y = 12
\(x^2(y-6)=12y+3\)
Differentiate:
\(2x\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}(y-6)+x^2\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=12\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}\)
Plug in everything you know: \(\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=2\), \(x=5\), and \(y=12\)
\(2(5)\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}(12-6)+5^2(2)=12(2)\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=-\dfrac{13}{30}\)
The value of dx/dt at given conditions is -13/30.
How is dx/dt calculated?
Given Equation:
\(x^{2} (y-6)=12y+3\)
With the help of chain rule, we will differentiate the above eqn.
Differentiation of eqn w.r.t to t:
\(2x\dfrac{dx}{dt}(y-6)+x^{2}\dfrac{dy}{dt}=12\dfrac{dy}{dt}\) {Since x and y are functions of t}
Given:
x=5, y=12, dy/dt=2 ,put values in above eqn.
\(2(5)\dfrac{dx}{dt}(12-6)+5^{2}(2) =12(2)\\\\ 60\dfrac{dx}{dt}=-26\\\\\dfrac{dx}{dt}=\dfrac{-13}{30}\)
Therefore value of dx/dt is -13/30.
