.

As equation is written in the post with two equation signs,

it contradicts to basic elementary Math grammar rules and is not readable.

I'm sorry but this
 
y=x²+y²=2y

makes no sense unless x and y were both equal to zero.

y just doesn't equal to 2y any other time. That is not what you meant.

please tell me what you meant in the space provided below for a thank you
note, and I'll help you.

Through a bit of trial-and-error, it appears the given equation should be .
Please be more careful when entering the equation.

The 1st derivative would be:
The scratch work is shown in the next section.

------------------------------------



















This will be used later.

------------------------------------

We then apply another round of implicit differentiation with respect to x.





Quotient Rule







From here we plug in the first derivative
















Use the equation x^2+y^2 = 2y




------------------------------------

Here's another way to do it





Product Rule





Plug in dy/dx = x/(1-y)













Replace x^2+y^2 with 2y
