Find dy/dx x^3+y^3=9xy

Problem

x3+y3=9*x*y

Solution

1. Differentiate both sides with respect to x treating y as a function of x and applying the chain rule to the y3 term.

d(x3)/d(x)+d(y3)/d(x)=(d(9)*x*y)/d(x)

2. Apply the power rule to the left side and the product rule to the right side.

3*x2+3*y2d(y)/d(x)=9*y+9*xd(y)/d(x)

3. Group the terms containing d(y)/d(x) on one side of the equation and the remaining terms on the other side.

3*y2d(y)/d(x)−9*xd(y)/d(x)=9*y−3*x2

4. Factor out the common d(y)/d(x) term from the left side.

d(y)/d(x)*(3*y2−9*x)=9*y−3*x2

5. Isolate the derivative by dividing both sides by (3*y2−9*x)

d(y)/d(x)=(9*y−3*x2)/(3*y2−9*x)

6. Simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common factor, 3.

d(y)/d(x)=(3*y−x2)/(y2−3*x)

Final Answer

d(y)/d(x)=(3*y−x2)/(y2−3*x)
