**Implicit Differentiation Tutorial**

**Problem Statement:**
Find \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) by implicit differentiation. Then find the slope of the graph at the given point.

**Equation:**
\[3x^3y = 6\]

**Given Point:**
\((1, 2)\)

### Steps for Solution:

1. **Implicit Differentiation:**
   - To differentiate the given equation \(3x^3y = 6\) implicitly with respect to \(x\):

     \[
     \frac{d}{dx}(3x^3y) = \frac{d}{dx}(6)
     \]

   - Apply the product rule to the left-hand side:

     \[
     3x^3 \frac{dy}{dx} + y \frac{d}{dx}(3x^3) = 0
     \]

   - Differentiate \(3x^3\) with respect to \(x\):

     \[
     3x^3 \frac{dy}{dx} + y(9x^2) = 0
     \]

   - Rearrange to solve for \(\frac{dy}{dx}\):

     \[
     3x^3 \frac{dy}{dx} = -9x^2 y
     \]

     \[
     \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-9x^2 y}{3x^3}
     \]

     \[
     \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-9y}{3x}
     \]

     \[
     \frac{dy}{dx} = -3 \frac{y}{x}
     \]

2. **Finding the Slope at a Specific Point:**
   - Substitute \(x = 1\) and \(y = 2\) into the expression for \(\frac{dy}{dx}\):

     \[
     \frac{dy}{dx} \bigg|_{(1, 2)} = -3 \frac{2}{1} = -6
     \]

Therefore, the slope of the graph at the point \((1, 2)\) is \(-6\).
