Suppose we have a function [tex] V(x,y)=x^2 + axy + y^2[/tex]
how do we write
[tex] \frac{dV}{dt} [/tex]
For instance if [tex] V(x,y)=x^2 + y^2[/tex], then [tex] \frac{dV}{dt} = 2x \frac{dx}{dt} + 2y \frac{dy}{dt} [/tex]
So, is the solution
[tex] \frac{dV}{dt} = 2x \frac{dx}{dt} + ay\frac{dx}{dt} + ax\frac{dy}{dt} + 2y \frac{dy}{dt} [/tex]
