Terms From Implicit Differentiation
< Prev
Next >

Consider the implicit equation $$x^3+y^3-3*x*y=0$$ (the Folium of Descartes). Differentiating yields:
$$3*x^2+ 3*y^2*(dy/dx) - 3*(y+x*(dy/dx)) = 0.$$
When expanded, the terms appear in the order: $$3*x^2, 3*y^2*(dy/dx), -3*y, -3*x*(dy/dx).$$
Rank these terms in that left-to-right order.

Label Expression
A $$3*x^2$$
B $$3*y^2*(dy/dx)$$
C $$-3*y$$
D $$-3*x*(dy/dx)$$
A

3x^2, -3y, 3y^2(dy/dx), -3x(dy/dx)

B

3x^2, 3y^2*(dy/dx), -3x(dy/dx), -3*y

C

3y^2(dy/dx), 3x^2, -3y, -3x(dy/dx)

D

3x^2, 3y^2*(dy/dx), -3y, -3x*(dy/dx)
