Implicit Differentiation with a Tangent Line












2












$begingroup$


I was looking to implicitly differentiate $$-22x^6+4x^{33}y+y^7=-17$$
and found it to be $$dfrac{dy}{dx}=dfrac{132x^5-132x^{32}y}{4x^{33}+7y^6}$$Now, I am trying to find the equation of the tangent line to the curve at the coordinate (1,1). So I then plug both 1 in for x and y into the above equation and come up with $$dfrac{0}{11}$$Now I go to solve $$y-y1=m(x-x1)$$ getting $$y-1=0(x-1)$$
resulting in $y=1$ and the equation to be $y=x+1$ for my final answer. Am I going about this in the correct manner?

    You start with $-22x^6 + 4x^{33}y + y^7 = -17$. Then you take (implicit) derivatives. What you wrote isn't that, and is not what you mean. What you wrote is that you started with the differential equation $y'-22x^6+4x^{33}y + y^7 = -17$.

    I follow your work to get $y=1$ why do you say $y =x+1$? You have shown that the slope is $0$!

Your work is fine but since $m=left(frac{dy}{dx}right)_{(1,1)}=0$ we have



$$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)=0 implies y=1$$
