Sections 13.1, 13.3. 14.1-14.7. 50 minutes. 5 problems, similar to homework problems. No calculators, no notes, no books, no phones. No green book needed.
Section 14.7
Example
(a) Find all the critical points of f (x, y ) = 12xy - 2x3 - 3y 2. (b) For each critical point of f , determine whether f has a local
maximum, local minimum, or saddle point at that point.
Solution: (a) f (x, y ) = 12y - 6x2, 12x - 6y = 0, 0 , then,
x2 = 2y , y = 2x, x(x - 4) = 0. There are two solutions, x = 0 y = 0, and x = 4 y = 8. That is, there are two critical points, (0, 0) and (4, 8).
Section 14.7
Example
(a) Find all the critical points of f (x, y ) = 12xy - 2x3 - 3y 2. (b) For each critical point of f , determine whether f has a local
maximum, local minimum, or saddle point at that point.
Solution: (b) Recalling f (x, y ) = 12y - 6x2, 12x - 6y , we compute
fxx = -12x, fyy = -6, fxy = 12.
D(x, y ) = fxx fyy - (fxy )2 = 144
x -1

,
Since D(0, 0) = -144 < 0, the point (0, 0) is a saddle point of f .
Since D(4, 8) = 144(2 - 1) > 0, and fxx (4, 8) = (-12)4 < 0, the point (4, 8) is a local maximum of f .
Section 14.7
Example
Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum of f (x, y ) = 2 + xy - 2x - 1 y 2 in the closed triangular region with
4 vertices given by (0, 0), (1, 0), and (0, 2).
Solution: We start finding the critical points inside the triangular region.
1 f (x, y ) = y - 2, x - y = 0, 0 , y = 2, y = 2x.
2 The solution is (1, 2). This point is outside in the triangular region given by the problem, so there is no critical point inside the region.
Section 14.7
Example
Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum of f (x, y ) = 2 + xy - 2x - 1 y 2 in the closed triangular region with
4 vertices given by (0, 0), (1, 0), and (0, 2). Solution: We now find the candidates for absolute maximum and minimum on the borders of the triangular region. We first record the boundary vertices:
(0, 0) f (0, 0) = 2, (1, 0) f (1, 0) = 0, (0, 2) f (0, 2) = 1.
Section 14.7
Example
Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum of f (x, y ) = 2 + xy - 2x - 1 y 2 in the closed triangular region with
4 vertices given by (0, 0), (1, 0), and (0, 2).
Solution: The horizontal side of the triangle, y = 0, x (0, 1). Since
g (x) = f (x, 0) = 2 - 2x, g (x) = -2 = 0.
there are no candidates in this part of the boundary. The vertical side of the triangle is x = 0, y (0, 2). Then,
g (y ) = f (0, y ) = 2 - 1 y 2,
1 g (y ) = - y = 0,

so y = 0 and we recover the point (0, 0).
Section 14.7
Example
Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum of f (x, y ) = 2 + xy - 2x - 1 y 2 in the closed triangular region with
4 vertices given by (0, 0), (1, 0), and (0, 2). Solution:
The hypotenuse of the triangle y = 2 - 2x, x (0, 1). Then,
g (x)

= 2 + 2x - 2x2 - 2x - (x2 - 2x + 1),
= 1 + 2x - 3x2.
Then,

hence

Example
Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum of f (x, y ) = 2 + xy - 2x - 1 y 2 in the closed triangular region with
4 vertices given by (0, 0), (1, 0), and (0, 2).

Recall that we have obtained a candidate point

Recalling that f (0, 0) = 2, f (1, 0) = 0, and f (0, 2) = 1, the absolute maximum is at (0, 0), and the minimum is at (1, 0).
Section 14.6
Example
(a) Find the linear approximation L(x, y ) of the function f (x, y ) = sin(2x + 3y ) + 1 at the point (-3, 2).
(b) Use the approximation above to estimate the value of f (-2.8, 2.3).
Solution: (a) L(x, y ) = fx (-3, 2) (x + 3) + fy (-3, 2) (y - 2) + f (-3, 2). Since fx (x, y ) = 2 cos(2x + 3y ) and fy (x, y ) = 3 cos(2x + 3y ),
fx (-3, 2) = 2 cos(-6 + 6) = 2, fy (-3, 2) = 3 cos(-6 + 6) = 3, f (-3, 2) = sin(-6 + 6) + 1 = 1.
the linear approximation is L(x, y ) = 2(x + 3) + 3(y - 2) + 1.
Section 14.6
Example
(a) Find the linear approximation L(x, y ) of the function f (x, y ) = sin(2x + 3y ) + 1 at the point (-3, 2).
(b) Use the approximation above to estimate the value of f (-2.8, 2.3).
Solution: (b) Recall: L(x, y ) = 2(x + 3) + 3(y - 2) + 1. Now, the linear approximation of f (-2.8, 2.3) is L(-2.8, 2.3), and
L(-2.8, 2.3) = 2(-2.8 + 3) + 3(2.3 - 2) + 2 = 2(0.2) + 3(0.3) + 1 = 2.3.
We conclude L(-2.8, 2.3) = 2.3.
Section 14.5
Example
(a) Find the gradient of f (x, y , z) = x + 2yz.
(b) Find the directional derivative of f at (0, 2, 1) in the direction given by 0, 3, 4 .
(c) Find the maximum rate of change of f at the point (0, 2, 1).
Solution:
1
(a) f (x, y , z) =
1, 2z, 2y .
2 x + 2yz
(b) We evaluate the gradient above at (0, 2, 1),
f (0, 2, 1) = 1

Example
(a) Find the gradient of f (x, y , z) = x + 2yz.
(b) Find the directional derivative of f at (0, 2, 1) in the direction given by 0, 3, 4 .
(c) Find the maximum rate of change of f at the point (0, 2, 1).
Solution:
(b)
Recall:
f (0, 2, 1) =
1 4
1, 2, 4
.
We now need a unit vector parallel to 0, 3, 4 ,
u= 1
1 0, 3, 4 = 0, 3, 4 .

Then,

Therefore, Duf (0, 2, 1) = 11/10.
Section 14.5
Example
(a) Find the gradient of f (x, y , z) = x + 2yz.
(b) Find the directional derivative of f at (0, 2, 1) in the direction given by 0, 3, 4 .
(c) Find the maximum rate of change of f at the point (0, 2, 1).
Solution:
(c) The maximum rate of change of f at a point is the magnitude
of its gradient at that point, that is,
1

21
|f (0, 2, 1)| = | 1, 2, 4 | = 1 + 4 + 16 = .

Therefore, the maximum rate of change of the function f at the point (0, 2, 1) is given by 21/4.
Section 14.3
Example
Find any value of the constant a such that the function f (x, y ) = e-ax cos(y ) - e-y cos(x) is solution of Laplace's equation fxx + fyy = 0.
Solution:
fx = -ae-ax cos(y ) + e-y sin(x), fy = -e-ax sin(y ) + e-y cos(x), fxx = a2e-ax cos(y ) + e-y cos(x), fyy = -e-ax cos(y ) - e-y cos(x),
then
fxx + fyy = a2e-ax cos(y ) + e-y cos(x ) + -e-ax cos(y ) - e-y cos(x) ,
= (a2 - 1)e-ax cos(y ).
Function f is solution of fxx + fyy = 0 iff a = ?1.
Section 14.2
Example
x2 sin2(y )
Compute
the
limit
lim
(x,y )(0,0)
2x 2
+
3y 2 .
Solution:
Since x2
2x 2
+ 3y 2,
that
is,
x2 2x2 + 3y 2
1, the non-negative
x2 sin2(y ) function f (x, y ) = 2x2 + 3y 2 satisfies the bounds
0 f (x, y ) sin2(y ).
Since limy0 sin2(y ) = 0, the Sandwich Theorem implies that
x2 sin2(y )
lim
(x,y )(0,0)
2x 2
+ 3y 2
=
0.
Section 13.3
Example
Reparametrize the curve r(t) = 3 sin(t2), 2t2, 3 cos(t2) with
2
2
respect to its arc length measured from t = 1 in the direction of
increasing t.
Solution:
We first compute the arc length function. We start with the
derivative
r (t) = 3t cos(t2), 4t, -3 sin(t2) ,
We now need its magnitude,
|r (t)| = 9t2 cos2(t2) + 16t2 + 9 sin2(t2), = 9t2 + 16t2, = 9 + 16t, = 5t.
