Find fx, fy, and fz.f(x, y, z) = x2y + y2z + xz2
A. fx = 2xy + z2; fy = x2 + yz; fz = y2 + xz B. fx = 2xy; fy = x2 + 2yz; fz = y2 + 2xz C. fx = 2xy + z2; fy = x2 + 2yz; fz = y2 + 2xz D. fx = 2y + z2; fy = x2 + 2z; fz = y2 + 2x
For the function f and number a, find the function that gives the slope of the secant line, s(x) = , for x ? a. Then describe the behavior of the function values as x approaches a. f(x) = 2x2 - 4; a = -1
A. s(x) = 2(x + 1) for x ? -1; as x ? -1, s(x) ? 0 B. s(x) = 2(x - 1) for x ? -1; as x ? -1, s(x) ? -8 C. s(x) = 2(x - 1) for x ? -1; as x ? -1, s(x) ? -4 D. s(x) = 2(x + 1) for x ? -1; as x ? -1, s(x) ? 2
