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

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

2 y

Solution steps

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

Treat

x

as a constant

Apply the Sum/Difference Rule:

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

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

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x^{2}) = 0

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

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (4) = 0

= 0 + 2 y - 0

Simplify

= 2 y
