A curve has equation 3x^4/3-16y^3/4=32. By differentiating implicitly find dy/dx in terms of x and y. Hence find the gradient of the curve at the point (8,1).

3x 4/3 -16y 3/4 =32Differentiating implicitly:4x 1/3 -12y -1/4 (dy/dx)=0Simplifying and rearranging:x 1/3 =3y -1/4 (dy/dx)dy/dx=1/3(x 1/3 y 1/4 ) Finding dy/dx using the (x,y) co-ordinates given:dy/dx=1/3(8 ...
