implicit function

At point, two-variable function {implicit function, differentiation} can equal zero: f(x,y) = 0. Then, derivative of one variable by other variable, dy/dx, equals negative of function partial derivative with respect to x divided by function partial derivative with respect to y, because differentiation makes constant zero: dy/dx = -(Df(x,y) / Dx) / (Df(x,y) / Dy), where D is partial derivative.

Because differentiation makes constant zero, constant can be any value. Constant can be implicit-function-family {primitive function} parameter. Differential equation is sum of parameter equation and primitive function.
