Solution
−1
\[\text { We have,} \sqrt{x} + \sqrt{y} = 1\]
\[\text { Differentiating with respect to x, we get }, \]
\[\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}} + \frac{1}{2\sqrt{y}}\frac{dy}{dx} = 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{2\sqrt{y}}\frac{dy}{dx} = - \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx} = - \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}} \times \frac{2\sqrt{y}}{1}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx} = - \frac{\sqrt{y}}{\sqrt{x}}\]
\[\text { Now,} \left[ \frac{dy}{dx} \right]_\left( \frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{4} \right) = - \frac{\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}}}{\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}}} = - 1\]
