Find \(d y / d x\) by implicit differentiation and evaluate the derivative at the given point. \(x y=6, \quad(-6,-1)\)
True or False? In Exercises \(129-134\) , determine whether the statement is true or false. If is false, explain why or give an example that shows it is false. The second derivative represents the rate of change of the first derivative.
Roadway Design Cars on a certain roadway travel on a circular arc of radius \(r .\) In order not to rely on friction alone to overcome the centrifugal force, the road is banked at an angle of magnitude \(\theta\) from the horizontal (see figure). The banking angle must satisfy the equation \(r g \tan \theta=v^{2},\) where \(v\) is the velocity of the cars and \(g=32\) feet per second per second is the acceleration due to gravity. Find the relationship between the related rates \(d v / d t\) and \(d \theta / d t\) .
(a) find two explicit functions by solving the equation for in terms of (b) sketch the graph of the equation and label the parts given by the corresponding explicit functions, (c) differentiate the explicit functions, and (d) find \(d y / d x\) implicitly and show that the result is equivalent to that of part (c). \(16 y^{2}-x^{2}=16\)
Finding an Equation of a Tangent Line In Exercises \(25-32,(\text { a) find an equation of the tangent line to the graph of } f\) at the given point, (b) use a graphing utility to graph the function and its tangent line at the point, and (c) use the derivative feature of a graphing utility to confirm your results. $$ f(x)=\sqrt{x}, \quad(1,1) $$
