How would I find the partial derivatives in regards to x, y, and xy using the product rule in this equation.

I've been looking at this problem for a few days and I'm stumped.

does it have to be the product rule, there is a far better method using implicit differentation,

if implicit differentation is allowed, let me know and I'll let you know,

Cheers,
