If sqrt(x)+sqrt(y)=sqrt(a) differentiate...

If `sqrt(x)+sqrt(y)=sqrt(a)` differentiate both sides with respect to x

A

`dy/dx =sqrt(x)/sqrt(y)`

B

`dy/dx =-sqrt(x)/sqrt(y)`

C

`dy/dx =-sqrt(y)/sqrt(x)`

D

`dy/dx =sqrt(y)/sqrt(x)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`1/(2sqrtx)+1/(2sqrt(y))dy/dx =0`
`rArr dy/dx =-sqrt(y)/sqrt(x).`
