Use the definition of the gradient (in two or three dimensions), assume that \(f\) and \(g\) are differentiable functions on \(\mathbb{R}^{2}\) or \(\mathbb{R}^{3},\) and let \(c\) be a constant. Prove the following gradient rules. a. Constants Rule: \(\nabla(c f)=c \nabla f\) b. Sum Rule: \(\nabla(f+g)=\nabla f+\nabla g\) c. Product Rule: \(\nabla(f g)=(\nabla f) g+f \nabla g\) d. Quotient Rule: \(\nabla\left(\frac{f}{g}\right)=\frac{g \nabla f-f \nabla g}{g^{2}}\) e. Chain Rule: \(\nabla(f \circ g)=f^{\prime}(g) \nabla g,\) where \(f\) is a function of one variable
Consider the following functions \(f.\) a. Is \(f\) continuous at (0,0)\(?\) b. Is \(f\) differentiable at (0,0)\(?\) c. If possible, evaluate \(f_{x}(0,0)\) and \(f_{y}(0,0)\) d. Determine whether \(f_{x}\) and \(f_{y}\) are continuous at \((0,0).\) e. Explain why Theorems 5 and 6 are consistent with the results in parts \((a)-(d).\) $$f(x, y)=\sqrt{|x y|}$$
Describe the set of all points at which all three planes \(x+3 z=3, y+4 z=6,\) and \(x+y+6 z=9\) intersect.
Suppose \(P\) is a point in the plane \(a x+b y+c z=d .\) Then the least distance from any point \(Q\) to the plane equals the length of the orthogonal projections of \(\overrightarrow{P Q}\) onto the normal vector \(\mathbf{n}=\langle a, b . c\rangle\) a. Use this information to show that the least distance from \(Q\) to the plane is \(\frac{|\overrightarrow{P Q} \cdot \mathbf{n}|}{|\mathbf{n}|}\) b. Find the least distance from the point (1,2,-4) to the plane \(2 x-y+3 z=1\)
Use the method of your choice to ate the following limits. $$\lim _{(x, y) \rightarrow(0,0)} \frac{|x-y|}{|x+y|}$$
