Q17 of 52 Page 1

If , show that .

Or


If xy-yx=ab, find .


Given that


Differentiating with respect to itself, we get





Simplifying, we get


x dx + y dy = x dy – y dx

or


dx(x + y)= dy(x-y)


Hence,


OR


Given that xy-yx=ab


Let u= xy and v= yx, then we get


u-v= ab


Differentiating with respect to x, we get


(Since ab is constant) …. (1)


u= xy


Taking log both sides



Differentiating with respect to x, we get




Hence, ….. (2)


v= yx


Taking log both sides



Differentiating with respect to x, we get






Hence, ……(3)


Substituting (2) and (3) in (1), we get



Simplifying, we get
