Could someone derive this equation and tell me what they get? My book just happens to not include the answer to this question in the back.

4(x^3)-(y^2)=y+2

I got 12(x^2)/(1+2y)

i got 12x^2=2y+1

or 12x^2-2y-1=0

Oops. Partial derivatives. The above two are correct.

Now I used this and they gave me my answer, but flipped, so: (1+2y)/(12(x^2))
