Multi-Variable Calc: implicit/chain differentiation

75 Views Asked by At

Find partial derivative of $z$ with respect to the partial of $y$ using the result of the chain rule.

$$\ln(x^2+y^2) + x\ln(z) - \cos(xyz)=3.$$

I would use regular implicit differentiation for this problem but what does "using result of the chain rule" mean?

Any help would be appreciated. :)
