find the first partial derivatives of the function.

27. f(x, y) = xVy + y°; (2, 1)
Transcribed Image Text:27. f(x, y) = xVy + y°; (2, 1)
Expert Solution
Step 1

The function is fx,y=xy+y2.

 

Determine the partial derivative with respect to x.

xfx,y=xxy+y2fxx,y=y+0=y

 

Substitute 2 for x and 1 for y in the above partial derivative.

fx2,1=1=1
