Passage: Let (e^y )^x-y=0 , where y is a function of x whose domain is (0,10] . Question: What is dy dx equal to ?
Options
- Ay 1-xy
- By 1+xy
- Cy^2 1-xy
- Dy^2 1+xy
Correct answer
C. y^2 1-xy
Step-by-step solution
Given equation is (e^y)^x - y = 0 e^ xy = y Taking natural logarithm on both sides: xy = (y) Differentiating both sides with respect to x : y + x dy dx = 1 y dy dx y = ( 1 y - x ) dy dx y = ( 1 - xy y ) dy dx dy dx = y^2 1 - xy
