In calculus, we went over the subject of implicit differentiation. I feel pretty solid on how to do it, except when they give the problem with
(dx)/(dt) or
(dx)/(dy) instead of your standard
(dy)/(dx)

How do you do these kinds of problems?

The same way.


(dy)/(dx) means it's derivative of function
y with respect to
x


(dx)/(dt) means it's derivative of function
x with respect to
t


(dx)/(dy) means it's derivative of function
x with respect to
y
