Q. Let xx and yy be functions of tt with y=4πx2y = 4 \pi x^2. If dxdt=13\frac{dx}{dt} = -\frac{1}{3}, what is dydt\frac{dy}{dt} when x=6x = 6?\newlineWrite an exact, simplified answer.
  1. Identify Relationship: Identify the relationship and differentiate implicitly.\newlineGiven y=4πx2y = 4\pi x^2, differentiate both sides with respect to tt.\newlinedydt=8πx(dxdt)\frac{dy}{dt} = 8\pi x\left(\frac{dx}{dt}\right)
  2. Differentiate Implicitly: Substitute the given values.\newlineSubstitute x=6x = 6 and dxdt=13\frac{dx}{dt} = -\frac{1}{3} into dydt=8πx(dxdt)\frac{dy}{dt} = 8\pi x\left(\frac{dx}{dt}\right).\newlinedydt=8π(6)(13)\frac{dy}{dt} = 8\pi(6)\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)
  3. Substitute Given Values: Perform the multiplication to find dydt\frac{dy}{dt}.dydt=8π(6)(13)=16π\frac{dy}{dt} = 8\pi(6)(-\frac{1}{3}) = -16\pi
