I am stuck on doing this implicit differentiation problem below. $y \cos x = 4x^2 + 3y^2$
I am now stuck at the following equality and I don't know how to proceed. Can someone help me? $y(โ\sin x) + (\cos x)y' = 8x + 6yy' $

Group the $y'$ terms to one side to get $(\cos(x)-6y)y' = 8x + y \sin(x) \implies y' = \dfrac{8x + y \sin(x)}{\cos(x) - 6y}$
What Marvis noted can be formulated below. Let $F(x,y)=0$ is a relation linking two variables $x$, $y$ implicitly. Then you can find $y'$ from this relation by calculating $y'=\frac{-F_x}{F_y}$ where in $F_x$ is differentiate of $F$ with respect to $x$. Now, $y \cos x = 4x^2 + 3y^2$ becames $y \cos x - 4x^2 - 3y^2=0$. Take $F(x,y)=y \cos x - 4x^2 - 3y^2=0$ and the rest is as Marvis did completely.
