  2. 2nd2^{nd} derivatives with implicit differentation
    Find y"y" by implicit differentiation for the following functions:
    1. x2+y2=9 x^2+y^2=9
    2. x2+xy=9 x^2+xy=9
  3. Derivatives with repeating patterns
    Find f(100)(x)f^{(100)}(x) for the following functions:
    1. f(x)=sin(x) f(x)= \sin (x)
    2. f(x)=e(2x) f(x)=e^{(2x)}

Note
If f(x)f'(x) is the derivative of f(x)f(x), then we say that f"(x)f"(x) is the 2nd2^{nd} derivative of f(x)f(x). Similarly, f(n)(x)f^{(n)}(x) is the nthn'th derivative of f(x)f(x).
