The question and my workings are attached:
The discussion focuses on calculating the derivative dr/dq for the function R = e^(q+p) where p is defined implicitly by the equation q^2*p + p^2*q + qp = 3. The user attempts to apply the chain rule but expresses uncertainty about the correctness of their approach. They derive that dr/dq equals zero, which is incorrect, as they fail to account for the implicit relationship between q and p. The correct method involves using implicit differentiation to find dp/dq and then applying it to derive dr/dq accurately.
PREREQUISITESStudents and professionals in mathematics, particularly those studying calculus, as well as educators looking to clarify concepts related to implicit differentiation and the chain rule.
