Consider: If

how do we find

Solution
From

xy

y

=
0
, we can define
y
explicitly in terms of
x
as
y

Thus,

Consider: If

Solution
From

Implicit Differentiation
To find
dy
dx
using implicit differentiation, we
1
think of the variable
y
as a differentiable function of the variable
x
,
2
differentiate both sides of the equation, using the chain rule where necessary,
and
3
solve for
dy
dx
.
