Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
xy = 2
find dy/dt= 4, find dx/dt when x= 5 and y = 2/5
xy' + yx' = 0
x' = -xy'/y = -5(4)/(2/5)= -20)(5/2) = -50 = dx/dt

Retired math prof. Calc 1, 2 and AP Calculus tutoring experience.
Since x = 5 and xy = 2, y = 2/x = 2/5
x(dy/dt) + y(dx/dt) = 0
Since dy/dt = 4, we have (5)(4) + (2/5)(dx/dt) = 0
Solve for dx/dt.
