Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\frac{274}{35}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{d}{dx}(xy^2+x^2y) = \frac{d}{dx}(12)\) \(y^2+2xy\frac{dy}{dx}+2xy+x^2\frac{dy}{dx}=0\) \(\frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{y^2+2xy}{x^2+2xy}\) \(m_t = \frac{dy}{dx}\bigg|_{(1,3)} = -\frac{3^2+2(1)(3)}{1^2+2(1)(3)} = -\frac{9+6}{1+6} = -\frac{15}{7}\) Tangent:…
