We got:

solve by x.

y^3+x^2y^2-y*sinx=1

derivate:

3y^2*y' + 2xy^2 + 2yx^2*y' - (y'sinx + ycosx) = 0


but to derivate this once again I am not sure how to proceed.

My solution:

[3y^2*y'+6y*y''] + [2y^2 + 4xyy'] + ...

solutoin manual:

6y*y'' + 2x2yy' + [2x^2*1*y'+2x^2*y*y'']



I've been searching for websites where I can read about this, but no luck.

What I think is done in the solution manual is that when x is x^1 it cannot be further derivated, because we kinda "loose" information?

I need some guidance or explination on how to handle equations that got:

y*y'

x*y^2

x*y*y'


Thanks in advance!

Okay, good!

You have the y' and y" reversed in the first braces
It is (3y^2)(y')'+ (3y^2)'(y')= (3y^2)y"+ 6yy'.

For the second (2xy^2)'= (2x)'(y^2)+ (2x)(y^2)'= 2y^2+ (2x)(2yy')= 2y^2+ 4xyy'.

For the third term (2yx^2y')'= (2y)'(x^2)(y')+ (2y)(x)'(y')+ (2y)(x)(y')'= 2x^2y'+ 2yy'+ 2yxy".

For the fourth term (-y'sin x)'= (-y')'(sin x)+ (-y)(sin x)'= -y"sin x- y cos x.

For the fourth term (-ycos x)'= (-y)'(cos x)+ (-y)(cos x)'= -y' cos x+ y sin x.

Combine those.

Thanks! That made a lot more sense than the teachers solution. I get it 100% now =)
 

What is a double derivative of an implicit function?

The double derivative of an implicit function is the second derivative of the function with respect to both variables. It represents the rate of change of the slope of the function at a specific point.

How is the double derivative of an implicit function calculated?

The double derivative of an implicit function can be calculated using implicit differentiation, which involves taking the derivative of both sides of the equation with respect to both variables and solving for the second derivative.

Why is the double derivative of an implicit function important?

The double derivative of an implicit function helps determine the concavity of the curve and the location of inflection points. It also plays a crucial role in optimization problems and in determining the behavior of the function near critical points.

What is the difference between the double derivative of an implicit function and a regular derivative?

The double derivative of an implicit function takes into account the rates of change in two variables, while a regular derivative only considers the rate of change in one variable. This allows for a more comprehensive understanding of the behavior of the function.

Can the double derivative of an implicit function be negative?

Yes, the double derivative of an implicit function can be negative. This indicates that the function is concave down at a specific point and the slope of the function is decreasing. It can also signify the presence of a local maximum on the curve.
