1.Use implicit differentiation to find the equation of the tangent line to the curve
xy^3+xy=16 at the point (8,1) . The equation of this tangent line can be written in the form y=mx+b

2.For the equation given below, evaluate y^1 at the point(1,-1) .
(6x-y)^4+2y^3=2399.

3.Find the equation of the tangent line to the curve (a lemniscate)
2(x^2+y^2)^2=25(x^2-y^2) at the point (3,-1). The equation of this tangent line can be written in the form y=mx+b

4.Find the slope of the tangent line to the curve sqrt(3x+3y)+sqrt(xy)=6.48 at the point
(1,5).

5.Use implicit differentiation to find the slope of the tangent line to the curve
y/(x+4y)=x^7+2 at the point (1,-3/11).

Anyone who can help... it would be greatly appreciated! :confused:

Thread 'Direction Fields and Isoclines'
I sketched the isoclines for $$ m=-1,0,1,2 $$. Since both $$ \frac{dy}{dx} $$ and $$ D_{y} \frac{dy}{dx} $$ are continuous on the square region R defined by $$ -4\leq x \leq 4, -4 \leq y \leq 4 $$ the existence and uniqueness theorem guarantees that if we pick a point in the interior that lies on an isocline there will be a unique differentiable function (solution) passing through that point. I understand that a solution exists but I unsure how to actually sketch it. For example, consider a...
