SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on finding the derivative of the function \( y = f(x) \) that satisfies the equation \( \frac{1}{x^{2}+y^{2}} = 2xy \). The user presents their final answer as \( \frac{2x^4f(x) + 4x^2f(x)^2 + 2f(x)^3}{-2f(x) - 2x^5 - 4x^3f(x) - 2xf(x)^2} \). Feedback indicates that the user may have misunderstood the problem, suggesting that integration with respect to \( x \) could be a more appropriate approach to find the original function.

Homework Statement



find a formula for the derivative of the function y = f(x) that satisfies the equation below.

Homework Equations



\frac{1}{x^{2}+y^{2}}\ = 2xy

The Attempt at a Solution


so my final answer is

2x4f(x)+4x2f(x)2+2f(x)3
all over
-2f(x)-2x5-4x3f(x)-2xf(x)2

Am i doing it right? I have a feeling I may have misunderstood the question.

so if you differetiate y=f(x) you should get what's below?

LaTeX Code: \\frac{1}{x^{2}+y^{2}}\\ = 2xy


well you can integrate wrt x since function is interms of x. then you can get the original function
