Math 3033 (Real Analysis) Fall 2012

Midterm

Directions: This is a closed book exam. No talking. Work with full details must be
shown to receive credits. Answers alone are worth very little.
Notations: R denotes the set of all real numbers. When n appears in the subscript of a
sequence, n will take the positive integer values 1, 2, 3, . . . in that order.

1. Define the function F : R2 → R by


4 4
x +y

if x + y 6= 0
F (x, y) = x2 + y 2 .

0 if x + y = 0


(a) (20 marks) Determine with proof if F is differentiable at (0, 0) or not.

(b) (10 marks) Determine with proof if F is differentiable at (1, 0) or not.
(c) (5 marks) Determine with proof if F is differentiable at (1, −1) or not.

2. (25 marks) Consider the system of equations

x = es+t + 2st − 1 and y = 3s + 2t.

Show that near (s, t, x, y) = (0, 0, 0, 0), (s, t) can be expressed as a differentiable
