Apply implicit differentiation by taking the derivative of both sides of the equation with respect to the differentiation variable
The derivative of the constant function ($1$) is equal to zero
The derivative of a sum of two or more functions is the sum of the derivatives of each function
The derivative of a function multiplied by a constant is equal to the constant times the derivative of the function
Apply the product rule for differentiation: $(f\cdot g)'=f'\cdot g+f\cdot g'$, where $f=x$ and $g=y$
The derivative of the linear function is equal to $1$
The power rule for differentiation states that if $n$ is a real number and $f(x) = x^n$, then $f'(x) = nx^{n-1}$
Any expression to the power of $1$ is equal to that same expression
The derivative of the linear function is equal to $1$
The power rule for differentiation states that if $n$ is a real number and $f(x) = x^n$, then $f'(x) = nx^{n-1}$
Group the terms of the equation by moving the terms that have the variable $y^{\prime}$ to the left side, and those that do not have it to the right side
Factor the polynomial $xy^{\prime}-2y\cdot y^{\prime}$ by it's greatest common factor (GCF): $y^{\prime}$
Divide both sides of the equation by $x-2y$
