Question
Answer
What is the Chain rule for partial derivatives?   dz/dt= (dz/dx)*(dx/dt)+(dz/dy)*(dy/dt)  
🗑
How do you find the domain of a multi-variable function?   Find any points at which f(x,y) is undefined and put it in the form x+y>0  
🗑
What does the partial derivative of a function represent?   the slope of the tangent plane, and instantaneous rate of change.  
🗑
How do you find the best dimensions for a box?   write out what you know. xyz=32 Sub out the Z variable. Using this new information make an equation for the quantity that your trying to optimize.  
🗑
How do you find the tangent plane to a function?   Z=Z0+fx(X0,Y0)(X-X0)+fy(X0,Y0)(Y-Y0)  
🗑
How do you find the gradient vector?   del f(X0,Y0)=fx(X0,Y0)I + fy(X0,Y0)J  
🗑
How do you find the directional derivative?   del f . unit vector  
🗑
How do you find a unit vector?   A/|A|  
🗑
How do you find the local maxs and mins in higher dimensions?   Find the critical points, (fx=0,fy=0), find f''(x,y)if its negative then its concave down meaning there's a maximum value, if its positive then its concave up meaning there's a minimum value.  
🗑
How do you find D using the second order partial test??   |fxx fxy| |fxy fyy|  
🗑
How do you apply the second order partial test?   -if D>0 and fxx>0 then theres a local min@(X0,Y0) -if D>0 and fxx<0 then theres a local max@(X0,Y0) -if D<0 then theres no extreme value and its a saddle point.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
