I agree with Stanton D.
Maybe I can give you a start.
For implicit differentiation you need to use the chain rule, as follows
2e2y(dy/dx) - e(y^2-y)(2y-1)(dy/dx) = 4x3 - 2x
Now collect terms and proceed as Stanton D. has suggested.

Hi Aisha M., You should simplify the left a bit, before you do anything else. Then just differentiate the given equation by dy on the left and by dx on the right. Use the rule for exponents, and the chain rule for each of the exponents themselves. This is called implicit differentiation. Then plug in your (x,y) values. -- Cheers, -- Mr. d.12/11/20
