Answer

$\frac{dx}{dt} = 55$

Work Step by Step

Given that $\frac{dy}{dt} = 5$ and $x=y^3-y$ on differentiating with respect to time $\frac{dx}{dt}$ = $\frac{d (y^3-y)}{dt}$ $\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{3y^2dy}{dt}-\frac{dy}{dt}$ when y=2 then $ \frac{dx}{dt} = 3\times (4)\times5-5$ Thus, the answer is $\frac{dx}{dt} = 55$
