To twice differentiate (x^3+y^3=1), you first need to express it in terms of one variable, and then differentiate twice with respect to that variable. Let's express it in terms of (y), and then differentiate twice with respect to (x).
-
Solve for (y): [y^3 = 1 - x^3] [y = (1 - x^3)^{1/3}]
-
Differentiate once with respect to (x): [\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx}(1 - x^3)^{1/3}]
-
Differentiate twice with respect to (x): [\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{d}{dx}\left(\frac{d}{dx}(1 - x^3)^{1/3}\right)]

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
