Q. Let xx and yy be functions of tt with y=4πx3y = 4 \pi x^3. If dxdt=6\frac{dx}{dt} = 6, what is dydt\frac{dy}{dt} when x=13x = \frac{1}{3}?\newlineWrite an exact, simplified answer.
  1. Identify Given Information: Identify the given information and the formula to use.\newlineGiven y=4πx3y = 4\pi x^3 and dxdt=6\frac{dx}{dt} = 6. We need to find dydt\frac{dy}{dt} using the chain rule.
  2. Apply Chain Rule: Apply the chain rule to find dydt\frac{dy}{dt}. \newlinedydt=d(4πx3)dxdxdt\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{d(4\pi x^3)}{dx} \cdot \frac{dx}{dt} \newline =12πx2dxdt= 12\pi x^2 \cdot \frac{dx}{dt}
  3. Substitute Values: Substitute dxdt=6\frac{dx}{dt} = 6 and x=13x = \frac{1}{3} into the equation.\newlinedydt=12π(13)2×6\frac{dy}{dt} = 12\pi\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^2 \times 6\newline=12π(19)×6\quad\quad\quad = 12\pi\left(\frac{1}{9}\right) \times 6\newline=12π9×6\quad\quad\quad = \frac{12\pi}{9} \times 6\newline=8π\quad\quad\quad = 8\pi
