show that at x = −2 a local maximum is assumed, that x = 0 is a Zeropoint, and that f(0) is the strict minimum of the function. Prove after this that there are no other extrema.
Show that the function is differentiable by finding values of ε1 and ε2 as designated in the definition of differentiability f(x, y) = x2y , and verify that both ε1 and ε2 approach 0 as (∆x, ∆y)→(0, 0).
