Short Answer

Expert verified

The second derivative of the equationxy3-yx3=6at1,2isd2ydx21,2=18001331.

Step by step solution

01

Explanation of Solution

They provide an equation or curve that is xy3-yx3=6

02

Step 2: Implicit Differentiation

To find the slopes of tangents to curves that aren't functions, we can utilize implicit differentiation (they fail the vertical line test). Parts of yare assumed to be functions that satisfy the supplied equation but yis not a function of x.

03

Calculation

Consider the equation of the curve below:

xy3-yx3=6

Differentiate the provided above equation of a curve,

x.3y3dydx+y3-y.3x2+x3.dydx=03xy3dydx+y3-3x2y-x3.dydx=0y3-3x2y+3xy2-x3dydx=0

Hence,

dydx=3x2y-y33xy2-x3

Again, differentiate the provided above equation of a curve,

role="math" localid="1658814580023" d2ydx2=3x2y-y33x2dydx+2xy-3y2dydx-3x2-y-y332xydydx+y2-3x23xy2-x32=3xy2-x33x23x2y-y3x3y2-x2+6xy-3y23x2y-y33y2-x2-3x2-y-y36xy3x2y-y3x3y2-x2+3y2-3x23xy2-x32

Put the (1,2) for (x,y)

d2ydx21,2=3122-133123122-231322-12612-3223122-23322-12-3122-236123122-231322-12+322-3123122-132=18001331
