Question 36

MediumOriginal question

Which of the following statements are true?

I. ddx(y2)=2ydydx\frac{d}{dx}\left(y^2\right) = 2y\frac{dy}{dx}.

II. ddx(xy)=xdydx+y\frac{d}{dx}(xy) = x\frac{dy}{dx} + y.

III. ddx(sin⁡y)=cos⁡y\frac{d}{dx}(\sin y) = \cos y.

IV. For x2+y2=16x^2 + y^2 = 16, dydx=−xy\frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{x}{y}.

CorrectNot quiteAnswer A

Correct answer: A

Explanation

  1. Every function of yy picks up a factor dydx\frac{dy}{dx} when differentiated with respect to xx: that makes I true and III false, since ddx(sin⁡y)=cos⁡ydydx\frac{d}{dx}(\sin y) = \cos y\frac{dy}{dx}.

  2. II is the product rule. IV: 2x+2ydydx=02x + 2y\frac{dy}{dx} = 0 gives −xy-\frac{x}{y}, so it is true.
