Q. Let xx and yy be functions of tt with y=43πx3y = \frac{4}{3} \pi x^3. If dxdt=18\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{1}{8}, what is dydt\frac{dy}{dt} when x=3x = 3?\newlineWrite an exact, simplified answer.
  1. Identify Relationship: Identify the relationship and differentiate implicitly.\newlineGiven y=43πx3y = \frac{4}{3}\pi x^3, differentiate both sides with respect to tt.\newlineUsing the chain rule, dydt=43π3x2dxdt\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{4}{3}\pi \cdot 3x^2 \cdot \frac{dx}{dt}.
  2. Differentiate Implicitly: Substitute the given values.\newlineSubstitute x=3x = 3 and dxdt=18\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{1}{8} into dydt=4πx2×18\frac{dy}{dt} = 4\pi x^2 \times \frac{1}{8}.\newlinedydt=4π(32)×18\frac{dy}{dt} = 4\pi(3^2) \times \frac{1}{8}.
  3. Apply Chain Rule: Simplify the expression.\newlinedydt=4π(9)×18=36π×18=4.5π\frac{dy}{dt} = 4\pi(9) \times \frac{1}{8} = 36\pi \times \frac{1}{8} = 4.5\pi.
