Homework Statement
find dy/dx for x2y+xy2=6
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
d/dx (x2y+xy2) = d/dx (6)
x2*(dy/dx)+y*2x+x*2y(dy/dx)+2y=0
x2*(dy/dx)+y*2x+x*2y(dy/dx)=-2y
(dy/dx)+y*2x+x*2y(dy/dx)=(-2y/x2)
(dy/dx)+y*2x+(dy/dx)=(-2y/x2+2xy)
I'm not sure what to do now, i know that the answer is (2xy-y2/x2+2xy)
I got the denominator correct in my answer but I'm not sure how to get the numerator correctly. Did I go wrong somewhere during the process?
