How to Simplify the Derivative of sqrt(x/y) + sqrt(y/x)?

[yourmom98]

okay I am supposed to prove the derivitive of: sqrt x/y + sqrt y/x
is equal to y/x

okay I am stuck where i have finally isolated y' i don't know how to reduce it further I am stuck with this at the moment (see attachment)
can you please tell me the process you went through to simplify it?

It's better if you write out the equation is expanded form:

\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{xy}} - \frac{\sqrt{y}}{x^\frac{3}{2}}}{\frac{\sqrt{x}}{y^\frac{3}{2}} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{xy}}}Doing a couple of simplifying operations

\frac{\frac{\sqrt{xy}}{xy} - \frac{\sqrt{y}}{x^\frac{3}{2}}}{\frac{\sqrt{x}}{y^\frac{3}{2}} - \frac{\sqrt{xy}}{xy}}

We try to match the denominators

\frac{\frac{\sqrt{x}\sqrt{xy}}{x^\frac{3}{2}y} - \frac{y\sqrt{y}}{yx^\frac{3}{2}}}{\frac{x\sqrt{x}}{xy^\frac{3}{2}} - \frac{\sqrt{y}\sqrt{xy}}{xy^\frac{3}{2}}}

\frac{\frac{x-y}{\sqrt{y}x^\frac{3}{2}}}{\frac{x-y}{\sqrt{x}y^\frac{3}{2}}}

.
\frac{\sqrt{xy^3}}{\sqrt{yx^3}}

okay so how does this prove y' = y/x?

 

[dx]

\frac{\sqrt{xy^3}}{\sqrt{yx^3}}
= \sqrt{\frac{xy^3}{yx^3}
= \sqrt{\frac{y^2}{x^2}} = \frac{y}{x}
