10. (i) Find dydx\frac{dy}{dx} and d2ydx2\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} if y=ln⁡(1−x1+x)y = \ln\left(\frac{1-x}{1+x}\right)

Given the function:

y=ln⁡(1−x1+x)y = \ln\left(\frac{1-x}{1+x}\right)

We can use the logarithm property ln⁡(ab)=ln⁡(a)−ln⁡(b)\ln\left(\frac{a}{b}\right) = \ln(a) - \ln(b) to simplify the expression:

y=ln⁡(1−x)−ln⁡(1+x)y = \ln(1-x) - \ln(1+x)
  1. Find dydx\frac{dy}{dx}.

    Differentiate yy with respect to xx. Recall that ddx(ln⁡(u))=1ududx\frac{d}{dx}(\ln(u)) = \frac{1}{u} \frac{du}{dx}.

    dydx=11−x⋅ddx(1−x)−11+x⋅ddx(1+x)\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{1-x} \cdot \frac{d}{dx}(1-x) - \frac{1}{1+x} \cdot \frac{d}{dx}(1+x) dydx=11−x⋅(−1)−11+x⋅(1)\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{1-x} \cdot (-1) - \frac{1}{1+x} \cdot (1) dydx=−11−x−11+x\frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{1}{1-x} - \frac{1}{1+x}

    To combine the terms, find a common denominator:

    dydx=−(1+x)−(1−x)(1−x)(1+x)\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-(1+x) - (1-x)}{(1-x)(1+x)} dydx=−1−x−1+x1−x2\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-1-x-1+x}{1-x^2} dydx=−21−x2\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-2}{1-x^2}

    This can also be written as:

    dydx=2x2−1\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2}{x^2-1}
  2. Find d2ydx2\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}.

    Now, differentiate dydx\frac{dy}{dx} with respect to xx. We can rewrite dydx\frac{dy}{dx} as 2(x2−1)−12(x^2-1)^{-1}.

    d2ydx2=ddx(2(x2−1)−1)\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{d}{dx}\left(2(x^2-1)^{-1}\right)

    Using the chain rule, ddx(un)=nun−1dudx\frac{d}{dx}(u^n) = nu^{n-1}\frac{du}{dx}:

    d2ydx2=2⋅(−1)(x2−1)−2⋅ddx(x2−1)\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = 2 \cdot (-1)(x^2-1)^{-2} \cdot \frac{d}{dx}(x^2-1) d2ydx2=−2(x2−1)−2⋅(2x)\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = -2(x^2-1)^{-2} \cdot (2x) d2ydx2=−4x(x2−1)2\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = -\frac{4x}{(x^2-1)^2}

    Note: The instruction "giving your answer in terms of t" appears to be a typo, as there is no variable 't' in the given function. The answers are provided in terms of x.

    The derivatives are:

    dydx=2x2−1\boxed{\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2}{x^2-1}} d2ydx2=−4x(x2−1)2\boxed{\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = -\frac{4x}{(x^2-1)^2}}

    10. (ii) If x2−xy+y2=3x^2 - xy + y^2 = 3, show that (2y−x)d2ydx2+2(dydx)2−2dydx+2=0(2y-x)\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} + 2\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2 - 2\frac{dy}{dx} + 2 = 0

    Given the implicit equation:

    x2−xy+y2=3x^2 - xy + y^2 = 3
  3. Find dydx\frac{dy}{dx} by implicitly differentiating the equation with respect to xx.

    Differentiate each term:

    ddx(x2)−ddx(xy)+ddx(y2)=ddx(3)\frac{d}{dx}(x^2) - \frac{d}{dx}(xy) + \frac{d}{dx}(y^2) = \frac{d}{dx}(3) 2x−(1⋅y+x⋅dydx)+2ydydx=02x - \left(1 \cdot y + x \cdot \frac{dy}{dx}\right) + 2y \frac{dy}{dx} = 0 2x−y−xdydx+2ydydx=02x - y - x\frac{dy}{dx} + 2y\frac{dy}{dx} = 0

    Group terms containing dydx\frac{dy}{dx}:

    (2y−x)dydx=y−2x(2y-x)\frac{dy}{dx} = y - 2x
  4. Find d2ydx2\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} by implicitly differentiating the equation from Step 1 with respect to xx.

    We will differentiate (2y−x)dydx=y−2x(2y-x)\frac{dy}{dx} = y - 2x.
    Apply the product rule to the left side and differentiate the right side:

    ddx(2y−x)⋅dydx+(2y−x)⋅ddx(dydx)=ddx(y−2x)\frac{d}{dx}(2y-x) \cdot \frac{dy}{dx} + (2y-x) \cdot \frac{d}{dx}\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right) = \frac{d}{dx}(y - 2x) (2dydx−1)dydx+(2y−x)d2ydx2=dydx−2\left(2\frac{dy}{dx} - 1\right)\frac{dy}{dx} + (2y-x)\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{dy}{dx} - 2

    Expand the left side:

    2(dydx)2−dydx+(2y−x)d2ydx2=dydx−22\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2 - \frac{dy}{dx} + (2y-x)\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{dy}{dx} - 2

    Rearrange the terms to match the target equation:

    (2y−x)d2ydx2+2(dydx)2−dydx−dydx+2=0(2y-x)\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} + 2\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2 - \frac{dy}{dx} - \frac{dy}{dx} + 2 = 0 (2y−x)d2ydx2+2(dydx)2−2dydx+2=0(2y-x)\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} + 2\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2 - 2\frac{dy}{dx} + 2 = 0

    This matches the equation we needed to show.
