I Differentiate two variables functions

[chimay]

Hi,
I am dealing with an equality of the form:
f(x)=g(y,z)
and I need to compute $dx$.
Is the following relation correct?
dx={(\frac{\partial f}{\partial x})}^{-1}( \frac{\partial g}{\partial y}dy + \frac{\partial g}{\partial z}dz )

Thank you in advance.

Yes, that's correct. Of course it breaks down at points where $\frac{\partial f}{\partial x}$ is zero, but maybe that's not in the domain of interest.

Thank you!
