A magnetic field is modeled such that a specific field line CCC follows the equation
4x+5y2+2xy2=10(5x)+10,y>0 4x + 5y^{2} + 2xy^{2} = 10(5^{x}) + 10, \quad y > 0 4x+5y2+2xy2=10(5x)+10,y>0where xxx and yyy are distances in centimeters.
Determine an expression for dydx\frac{dy}{dx}dxdy in terms of xxx and yyy.
The field line CCC crosses the yyy-axis at the point PPP.
Find the exact value of the gradient of the field line at PPP.
