Example 1
Find dy/dx where x = 1 + y-3. Before solving the problem we note that so x and y are inverse functions of each other. We want to find with x the independent variable. This looks hard, but it is easy to compute with y the independent variable. SOLUTION: We can write dy/dx in terms of x by substituting,
