Hi; given the equation ydy/dx=x^2 how is the chain rule applied to result in ydy =x^2dx?
Thanks
Thanks
That's not the chain rule. That's the defining property of the differentials ##dx## and ##dy##.Martyn Arthur said:TL;DR Summary: Application of chain rule

No chain rule at all -- what they did was to multiply both sides of the equation by dx.Martyn Arthur said:Hi; given the equation ydy/dx=x^2 how is the chain rule applied to result in ydy =x^2dx?
