3.Medium
xy33P

The tangent plane to z = −3xy² + 3x³ − 4y² at the point where (x, y) = (3, 3) can be written as z = px + qy + c. Find c.

f(x, y) = −3xy² + 3x³ − 4y²(a, b) = (3, 3)
c =
4.Medium

z = −x³y² − 4y³ − 3xy with x = 3t − 1 and y = 2t² − 2. Use the chain rule to find dz/dt at t = 1.

z = −x³y² − 4y³ − 3xyx = 3t − 1y = 2t² − 2t = 1
dz/dt =
