## Problem Statement

Assume that \( x \) and \( y \) are both differentiable functions of \( t \). Find the required values of \( \frac{dy}{dt} \) and \( \frac{dx}{dt} \).

Given equation:
\[ x^2 + y^2 = 169 \]

### (a) Find \( \frac{dy}{dt} \), given \( x = 5 \), \( y = 12 \), and \( \frac{dx}{dt} = 5 \).

\[ \frac{dy}{dt} = \_\_\_\_\_\_ \]

### (b) Find \( \frac{dx}{dt} \), given \( x = 12 \), \( y = 5 \), and \( \frac{dy}{dt} = -5 \).

\[ \frac{dx}{dt} = \_\_\_\_\_\_ \]

### Explanation of Steps:

1. **Differentiate the given equation implicitly with respect to \( t \):**
   
   \[ x^2 + y^2 = 169 \]

   Differentiating both sides:
   \[ 2x \frac{dx}{dt} + 2y \frac{dy}{dt} = 0 \]

2. **Solve for \( \frac{dy}{dt} \) and \( \frac{dx}{dt} \):**

#### For (a):
Given \( x = 5 \), \( y = 12 \), and \( \frac{dx}{dt} = 5 \):

\[ 2(5)\left(5\right) + 2(12)\left(\frac{dy}{dt}\right) = 0 \]
\[ 50 + 24\left(\frac{dy}{dt}\right) = 0 \]
\[ \frac{dy}{dt} = -\frac{50}{24} \]

Simplify:
\[ \frac{dy}{dt} = -\frac{25}{12} \]

#### For (b):
Given \( x = 12 \), \( y = 5 \), and \( \frac{dy}{dt} = -5 \):

\[ 2(12)\left(\frac{dx}{dt}\right) + 2(5)\left(-5\right) = 0 \]
\[ 24\left(\frac{dx}{
