The Chain Rule & Implicit Differentiation · Easy problem

A differentiable function f(x,y)f(x,y) has fx(1,2)=3f_x(1,2) = 3 and fy(1,2)=−1f_y(1,2) = -1. A particle moves along x=t2x = t^2, y=2ty = 2t. Find the rate of change of ff along the path, ddtf(x(t),y(t))\dfrac{d}{dt}f(x(t),y(t)), at t=1t = 1.
