The curve C has equation x^2 – 3xy – 4y^2 + 64 = 0; find dy/dx in terms of x and y, and thus find the coordinates of the points on C where dy/dx = 0

Start by differentiating x2 – 3xy – 4y2 + 64 = 0 with respect to x to obtain an equation in x, y and dy/dx:
2x – 3y – 3x.dy/dx – 8y.dy/dx = 0 [use the product rule to differe...
