Problem #1:
If f(x, y) is differentiable near (x,y) = (a, b), and u
is any unit vector, consider the
consider the following
statements.
(i) If Duf(a, b) > 0 and v
Dyf(a, b) <0
= -u then
(ii) Duf (a, b) may be greater than || Vf (a, b)|||
(iii) If u is parallel to f (a, b) then
Duf (a,b) = 0
Determine which of the above statements are True
(1) or False (2).
So, for example, if you think that the answers, in the
above order, are True, False, False, then you would
enter '1,2,2' into the answer box below (without the
quotes).
