AP Calculus AB: 3.2 Implicit Differentiation – Exam Style questions with Answer- MCQ

Question

If \(x^{2}+xy-3y=3\) then at the point (2, 1),\(\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} x}\)

A 5

B 4

C \(\frac{7}{3}\)

D 2

▶️Answer/Explanation

Ans:A

Question

Given that \(3x-\tan y=4\),what is \(\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} x}\) in terms of y ?

A \(\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} x}=3\sin ^{2}y\)

B \(\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} x}=3\cos ^{2}y\)

C \(\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} x}=3\cos y\cot y\)

D \(\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{3}{1+9y^{2}}\)

▶️Answer/Explanation

Ans:B

Question

If \(x^{2}+y^{2}=25\) what is the value of \(\frac{\mathrm{d} ^{2}y}{\mathrm{d} x^{2}}\) at the point (4,3) ?

A \(-\frac{25}{27}\)

B \(-\frac{7}{27}\)

C \(\frac{7}{27}\)

D \(\frac{3}{4}\)

E  \(\frac{25}{27}\)

▶️Answer/Explanation

Ans:A

Question

\(\frac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} x}(x^{5}-5^{x})=\)
A \(\frac{x^{6}}{6}-\frac{5^{x}}{\ln 5}\)
B \(5x^{4}-5^{x}\)
C \(5x^{4}-x.5^{x-1}\)
D \(5x^{4}-(\ln 5) 5^{x}\)

▶️Answer/Explanation

Ans:D

The derivative of \(x^{5}\) is \(5x^{4}\)  by the power rule, and the derivative of the exponential function \(5^{x}\) is (\ln 5)5^{x}\) Therefore,\(\frac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} x}(x^{5}-5^{x})=5x^{4}-(\ln 5)5^{x}\)
