  1. $\frac{1}{2}$
  2. -1
  3. 1
  4. 0

Solution

Let $\cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)=\theta \Rightarrow \cos \theta=\frac{1}{3} \Rightarrow \sin \theta=\sqrt{1-\frac{1}{9}}=\frac{2 \sqrt{2}}{3}$ $\therefore \sin (x+y)+\cos (x+y)=\sin \left[\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{2 \sqrt{2}}{3}\right)\right] \Rightarrow \sin (x+y)+\cos (x+y)=\frac{2 \sqrt{2}}{3}$ Differentiating both sides. w.r.t. $\mathrm{x}$ $\begin{array}{l} \cos (x+y)\left(1+\frac{d y}{d x}\right)-s \\ x+y=\tan ^{-1}(1)=\frac{\pi}{4} \end{array}$ Differentiating w.r.t. $x$, we get $1+\frac{d y}{d x}=0 \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=-1$
