Math Problem Statement
Solution
The problem asks us to implicitly differentiate from the equation:
Step 1: First derivative ( )
Differentiate both sides of the equation implicitly with respect to :
Using the product rule for the term and applying simple differentiation for , we get:
Now, solve for :
Step 2: Second derivative ( )
Now, differentiate implicitly again with respect to :
Apply the quotient rule to differentiate the right-hand side:
First, differentiate the numerator :
Now, substitute this into the formula for the quotient rule:
Simplify the expression:
Finally, plug in into the expression:
Simplify this expression:
Finally:
Thus, the second derivative is:
