(\partial)/(\partial y)(x^4y^2-x^3y)

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x^{4} y^{2} - x^{3} y)

2 x^{4} y - x^{3}

Solution steps

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x^{4} y^{2} - x^{3} y)

Treat

x

as a constant

Apply the Sum/Difference Rule:

(f \pm g)^{'} = f^{'} \pm g^{'}

= \frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x^{4} y^{2}) - \frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x^{3} y)

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x^{4} y^{2}) = 2 x^{4} y

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x^{3} y) = x^{3}

= 2 x^{4} y - x^{3}
