Q. Let xx and yy be functions of tt with y=2x3+4x2+3y = 2x^3 + 4x^2 + 3. If dxdt=13\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{1}{3}, what is dydt\frac{dy}{dt} when x=4x = 4?\newlineWrite an exact, simplified answer.
  1. Identify Function: Identify the function and differentiate it with respect to xx. Given y=2x3+4x2+3y = 2x^3 + 4x^2 + 3, differentiate each term with respect to xx. dydx=6x2+8x\frac{dy}{dx} = 6x^2 + 8x
  2. Apply Chain Rule: Apply the chain rule to find dydt\frac{dy}{dt}. Using dydt=(dydx)(dxdt)\frac{dy}{dt} = \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{dx}{dt}\right), substitute dxdt=13\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{1}{3}. dydt=(6x2+8x)(13)\frac{dy}{dt} = \left(6x^2 + 8x\right) \cdot \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)
  3. Substitute x=4x = 4: Substitute x=4x = 4 into the expression for dydt\frac{dy}{dt}.
    dydt=(6(4)2+84)(13)\frac{dy}{dt} = (6*(4)^2 + 8*4) * (\frac{1}{3})
    dydt=(616+32)(13)\frac{dy}{dt} = (6*16 + 32) * (\frac{1}{3})
    dydt=(96+32)(13)\frac{dy}{dt} = (96 + 32) * (\frac{1}{3})
    dydt=128(13)\frac{dy}{dt} = 128 * (\frac{1}{3})
    dydt=42.67\frac{dy}{dt} = 42.67
