Problem(1)(25 pts.)
(a) Describe the function of two or more variables with examples.
(b) f (x, y) = (x2xy
+y 2 )
, g(x, y) = sin(x + y).
find f + 3g(4, 6).
(c) Calculate lim(x,y)(3,5) sin(5x3y)
5x3y .

Problem(2)(25 pts)
(a.)Calculate f f 2 (x2 +y 2 ) .
x , y of the function f (x, y) = xy e
(b.) Find the critical point of the function of f (x, y) = 4x2 + 6y 2 6x + 8y 4 (local
Max,local Min, Saddle point).
(c.) We know from the least square estimate of line y = mx + b where

m = .................

and, b = ...............

Problem(3)(25 pts)
(a.) Let f (x, y) = xsin(y), Calculate Of (x, y). If u = (3/5)i + (4/5)j , then what
is Du f (2, /6).
(b.) Find the tangent plane to the surface x2 +4y 2 +8z 2 = 13 at the point (1, 1, 1).

Problem(4).(25 pts)
2 y
(a.) State the chain rule for a function of two variables. Suppose z = f (x, y) = xx+y
x = (s) = s + es and y = s2 then calculate dz ds .
(b.) With help of Taylors formula find the quadratic polynomial T2 (x, y) that ap-
proximate the function f (x, y) = cos(x)sin(y) near the origin.(Hints: Just calculate
the value T( x, y) = f (0, 0) + (fx (0, 0)x + fy (0, 0)y) + 12 (fxx (0, 0)x2 + 2fxy (0, 0)xy +
fyy (0, 0)y 2 ))
(c.) Find the extrema f (x, y) = cos2 (x) + sin2 (y) subject to g(x, y) = x y = .
