Note: 51 52 53 TOTAL DIFFERENTIAL
In partial differentiation of a function of two or more variables, only one variable
varies. But in total differentiation, increments are given in all the variables. Let 𝒛 = 𝒇 𝒙, 𝒚 Then total differential of z is: 𝝏𝒇 𝝏𝒇 𝒅𝒛 = 𝒅𝒙 + 𝒅𝒚 𝝏𝒙 𝝏𝒚
Then 𝒅𝒛 is called total differential
