For each of the questions you MUST first figure, YOUR version, with the following convention
For i=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 , a[i]:= The i-th digit of your RUID, BUT of it is zero make it 1
Example: RUID=413200125;
a[1] = 4, a[2] = 1, a[3] = 3, a[4] = 2, a[5] = 1, a[6] = 1, a[7] = 1, a[8] = 2, a[9] = 5
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HERE WRITE THE ACTUAL a[i]
a[1]=1 , a[2]=8 , a[3]=7 , a[4]=0 , a[5]=0 , a[6]=7 , a[7]=0 , a[8]=4 , a[9]=6

Problem 1:
Find dz/dy at the point (1,1,1) if z(x,y) is given implicitly by the equation
x^a[1]+y^a[2]+z^a[3]+a[5]*x*y*z^2 = 3+a[5]
With my RUID data the question is
Find dz/dy at the point (1,1,1) if z(x,y) is given implicitly by the equation
x^1+y^8+z^7+0*x*y*z^2 = 3+0
Here is how I do it (Explain everything)
x+y^8+z^7= 3 differentiate with respect to y
(x+y^8+z^7)'= 3
0+8*y^7+7*z^6*(dz/dy)=0
7*z^6*(dz/dy)=-8*y^7 solve for dz/dy using algebra
dz/dy=-(8*y^7)/7*z^6
Ans.:dz/dy=-(8*y^7)/(7*z^6)
---------------------------------------------
Problem 2:
Suppose that grad(f)(P)=. Is f increasing or decreasing at the direction ?
With my RUID data the question is
Suppose that grad(f)(P)=<1, 0, 2>. Is f increasing or decreasing at the direction <1, 7, 0>?
Here is how I do it (Explain everything)
Ans.:
---------------------------------------------
Problem 3:
Find the directional derivative of the function f(x,y,z)
x^3*a[6]+y^3*a[3]+z^3*a[8]
At the point P=(1,-1,1) in the direction pointing to Q=(1,-1,3)
With my RUID data the question is
Find the directional derivative of the function f(x,y,z)
x^3*7+y^3*7+z^3*4
At the point P=(1,-1,1) in the direction pointing to Q=(1,-1,3)
Here is how I do it (Explain everything)
v=PQ=<1-1, -1-(-1), 3-1>=<0, 0, 2> Find a vector v in the direction of PQ
||v||=sqrt(0^2+0^2+2^2)=2 Find unit vector u in the direction of v
u=v/||v||=k=<0, 0, 1>
fx(x,y,z)=21*x^2 Find the partial dierivates
fy(x,y,z)=21*y^2
fz(x,y,z)=12*z^2
grad(f)=<21*x^2, 21*y^2, 12*z^2> Plug-in P(1,-1,1) for gradient
grad(f)(1,-1,1)=<21, 21, 12>
grad(f)(1,-1,1).u=<21, 21, 12>.<0, 0, 1>=12 Take the dot product
Ans.: 12
---------------------------------------------
Problem 4:
Find a saddle point of the function f(x,y)=
exp(x-a[4])-(x-a[4])*exp(y-a[6])
If there is no saddle point, write in the Answers: "Does Not exist". Explain what you are doing
With my RUID data the question is
Find a saddle point of the function f(x,y)=
exp(x-0)-(x-0)*exp(y-7)
exp(x)-(x)*exp(y-7)
Here is how I do it (Explain everything)
fx=exp(x)-exp(y-7)
fy=-x*exp(7-y)
fxx=exp(x)
fxy=-exp(7-y)
fyy=-x*exp(7-y)
exp(x)-exp(y-7)=0, -x*exp(7-y)=0
x=0, y=7 =>(0,7)
fxx(0,7)=1, fxy(0,7)=-1, fyy(0,7)=0
D=1*0-(-1)^2=-1
Therefore f(x,y) exists saddle point at (0,7)
Ans.:(0,7)
---------------------------------------------
Problem 5:
Let f(x,y) be the function
a[4]*x + a[7]*y + a[2]
Find the ABSOLUTE MINIMUM VALUE of f(x,y) INSIDE the TRIANGLE whose VERTICES ARE
A = [a[1], a[2]], B = [a[3], a[4]], C = [a[5], a[6]]
With my RUID data the question is
Let f(x,y) be the function
0*x + 0*y + 8
Find the ABSOLUTE MINIMUM VALUE of f(x,y) INSIDE the TRIANGLE whose VERTICES ARE
A = [1, 8], B = [7, 0], C = [0, 7]
Here is how I do it (Explain everything)
Since the function f(x,y)=8 is a constant
there is no minimum value of f(x,y)
Ans.:No Solution
---------------------------------------------
Problem 6:
Let f(x,y) be the function
(x^2*a[4]^2-y^2*a[5]^2)/(x*a[4]-y*a[5])
Find the LIMIT of f(x,y) as (x,y) goes to the point [a[5],a[4]], or show that it does not exist
With my RUID data the question is
Let f(x,y) be the function
(x^2*0^2-y^2*0^2)/(x*0-y*0)
Find the LIMIT of f(x,y) as (x,y) goes to the point [0,0], or show that it does not exist
Here is how I do it (Explain everything)
f(x,y)=(x^2*0^2-y^2*0^2)/(x*0-y*0)
f(x,y)=(0-0)/(1-1)=0
The function does not exist
Therefore there is no solution for this question with my RUID
---------------------------------------------
Problem 7:
Find the curvature of the curve
r(t) = [a[1], a[2]*t, a[3]*t^2]
At the point (a[1],0,0)
With my RUID data the question is
Find the curvature of the curve
r(t) = [1, 8*t, 7*t^2]
At the point (1,0,0)
Here is how I do it (Explain everything)
r(t)=i+8*t*j+7*t^2*k Compute r'(t) and r''(t)
r'(t)=0+8*j+14*t*k
r''(t)=14*k
r'(t)xr''(t)= 112i Compute the cross product of r'(t) and r''(t)
|r'(t)xr''(t)|=sqrt(112^2)=112 Find the magnitude of vector and r'(t)
|r'(t)|=sqrt(8^2+(14*t)^2)=sqrt(64+196*t^2)
k(t)=|r'(t)xr''(t)|/|r'(t)|^3 Use the formula for curvature
k(t)=112/(sqrt(64+196*t^2))^3
Ans.:k(t)=112/(sqrt(64+196*t^2))^3
---------------------------------------------
Problem 8:
A particle is moving in the plane with ACCELERATION given by
[-a[1]*sin(t), -a[2]*cos(t)]
At time t=0 its position is , [0, a[2]]
and its velocity is , [a[1], 0]
Where is it located at time , t = Pi
With my RUID data the question is
A particle is moving in the plane with ACCELERATION given by
[-1*sin(t), -8*cos(t)]
At time t=0 its position is , [0, 8]
and its velocity is , [1, 0]
Where is it located at time , t = Pi
Here is how I do it (Explain everything)
a(t)=-1*sin(t)*i-8*cos(t)*j
int(a(t))=v(t)=cos(t)*i-8*sin(t)*j+C
v(0)=cos(0)-8*sin(0)+C=[1,0]
C=0
v(t)=(cos(t))*i-(8*sin(t))*j
int(v(t))=p(t)
p(t)=sin(t)+8*cos(t)+C
p(0)=0*i+8*j+C=[0,8]
C=0
p(t)=sin(t)*i+8*cos(t)*j
p(pi)=-8*j =>[0, -8]
---------------------------------------------
Problem 9:
A certain function depends on variables x and y
Right now the rate of change of the function with respect to x is, a[5]
and the rate of change of the function with respect to y is, a[7]
Both x and y depend on time
Right now the rate of change of x with respect to time is, a[1]
and the rate of change of y with respect to time is, a[9]
How fast is the function changing right now?
With my RUID data the question is
Here is how I do it (Explain everything)
---------------------------------------------
Problem 10:

With my RUID data the question is
Find the point of intersection of the three planes
x = 0, y = 0, z = 7
Here is how I do it (Explain everything)
The point of intersection is (0, 0, 7)
