Chapter 12: Q. 24 (page 989)

Partial derivatives: Find all first- and second-order partial derivatives for the following functions:
$f (x, y, z) = \ln 鈦� (x + y + z)$

Short Answer

Expert verified

$\frac{{鈭�}^{2} f}{鈭� x^{2}} = 鈭� \frac{1}{(x + y + z)^{2}}$

$\frac{{鈭�}^{2} f}{鈭� y^{2}} = 鈭� \frac{1}{(x + y + z)^{2}}$

$\frac{{鈭�}^{2} f}{鈭� z^{2}} = 鈭� \frac{1}{(x + y + z)^{2}}$

Step by step solution

Step 1. Given information

$f (x, y, z) = \ln 鈦� (x + y + z)$

Step 2. Differentiate

Partially differentiating with respect to x,y and z,

$\begin{aligned} \frac{鈭� f}{鈭� x} = \frac{1}{x + y + z} \\ \frac{鈭� f}{鈭� y} = \frac{1}{x + y + z} \\ \frac{鈭� f}{鈭� z} = \frac{1}{x + y + z} \end{aligned}$

Again differentiating with respect to x, y and z,

$\begin{aligned} \frac{{鈭�}^{2} f}{鈭� x^{2}} = 鈭� \frac{1}{(x + y + z)^{2}} \\ \frac{{鈭�}^{2} f}{鈭� z 鈭� x} = 鈭� \frac{1}{(x + y + z)^{2}} = \frac{{鈭�}^{2} f}{鈭� x 鈭� z} \\ \frac{{鈭�}^{2} f}{鈭� y 鈭� x} = 鈭� \frac{1}{(x + y + z)^{2}} = \frac{{鈭�}^{2} f}{鈭� x 鈭� y} \end{aligned}$

Again differentiating with respect to y and z,

$\begin{aligned} \frac{{鈭�}^{2} f}{鈭� y^{2}} = 鈭� \frac{1}{(x + y + z)^{2}} \\ \frac{{鈭�}^{2} f}{鈭� z 鈭� y} = 鈭� \frac{1}{(x + y + z)^{2}} = \frac{{鈭�}^{2} f}{鈭� y 鈭� z} \end{aligned}$

Now,

$\frac{{鈭�}^{2} f}{鈭� z^{2}} = 鈭� \frac{1}{(x + y + z)^{2}}$
