Homework Statement
I was messing around online when I found this: [itex]\frac{dy}{2}[/itex] = 2x. This was derived from the function y = x2. I had never really seen anything like this before. When I solved for "dy," I got 4x. However, for example, when x changes from 0 to 2, the y changes from 0 to 4. Interestingly enough, "dy" is represented as being 4x and not just 4. Can someone point out what I did wrong?
Homework Equations
y = x2
[itex]\frac{dy}{2}[/itex] = 2x
The Attempt at a Solution
Pretty much explained in the "problem statement" by accident.
