Partial Derivatives

1. Find the first partial derivatives of x3 y2 with respect to x and y . 2. Find the four second partial derivatives of x3 sinyex y.

Clairaut's Theorem states that if the mixed partial derivatives fx y and fy x are continuous at a point x, y, then they are equal: fx y fy x. The last two outputs confirm Clairaut's Theorem for this particular example

1. Evaluate the first partial derivatives of x y y z2 x z at 1, 2, 3. 2. Let f x, y, zy ex x ey ln z. Find fx x x, fx y z, fx z z, fz x z , and fz z x.
