The correct answer is: $\frac{-y}{x}$
Given $\mathrm{x}^2+\mathrm{y}^2=\mathrm{t}-\frac{1}{\mathrm{t}}$
$\begin{aligned}
& \text { and } x^4+y^4=t^2+\frac{1}{t^2} \\
& \Rightarrow x^4+y^4=x^4+y^4+2 x^2 y^2+2 \\
& \Rightarrow x^2 y^2+1=0
\end{aligned}$
Now $\frac{d y}{d x} \Rightarrow 2 x y^2+x^2 2 y y l=0$
$\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow y^1=\frac{-2 x y^2}{2 x^2 y} \\
& =\frac{-y}{x}
\end{aligned}$
