The path of a roller-coaster loop is modeled by xtan⁡y−y2=0x\tan y-y^{2}=0, where xx and yy are measured in meters. Determine dydx\dfrac{dy}{dx} when y=π4y=\dfrac{\pi}{4}. a) −4π(π−4)-\dfrac{4}{\pi(\pi-4)} b) 8π(π−4)\dfrac{8}{\pi(\pi-4)} c) −8π(π−4)-\dfrac{8}{\pi(\pi-4)} d) −8π(π+4)-\dfrac{8}{\pi(\pi+4)}
