Find dy/dx for y³ = x² + y. — 3y²y′ = 2x + y′ ⟹ y′ =2x/(3y² − 1).
For x = t³ − t, y = t² + 1 find dy/dx at t = 2. — (2t)/(3t² − 1) = 4/11 ⟹4/11.
Find the tangent to x²y + y³ = 8 at (2, 2). — y′ = −(2xy)/(x² + 3y²) = −4/(4 + 12) =−1/4 ⟹ x + 4y = 10.
A spherical balloon grows at 10 cm³/s. How fast is the radius increasing when r = 5? — dV/dt = 4πr²·dr/dt ⟹ dr/dt = 10/(100π) =1/(10π) ≈ 0.0318 cm/s.
A 10 m ladder's top slides down at 0.5 m/s when the foot is 6 m from the wall. Find the foot's speed. — x·dx/dt + y·dy/dt = 0 with y = 8: 6·dx/dt = 8(0.5) ⟹2/3 m/s.
For the ellipse x²/9 + y²/4 = 1 find the points with a horizontal tangent. — y′ = −(4x)/(9y) = 0 ⟹ x = 0 ⟹(0, ±2); vertical tangents at (±3, 0).
