Find expressions for the partial derivatives of the following functions:
a. f(x, y) = f (g(x)k(y), g(x) + h(y)
b. f(x, y,z) = f(g(+ y), h(y + z))
c. f(x, y,z) = f(xy, yz, zx)
d. f(x, y) = f(x, g(x), h(x, y))

Step-by-step explanation: partial derivative is the differentiation of one variable e.g. X while leaving the values of the other variable e.g. Y

These four questions A, B, C and D have different functions separated by commas. I will not assume the commas to be something else like a plus sign.

A. f(x) = g'(x).k(y) , g'(x) + h(y)

f(y) = k'(y).g(x) , g(x) + h'(y)

B. f(x) = g'x (x+y)

f(y) = g'y (x+y) , h'y (y+z)

f(z) = h'z (y+z)

C. f(x) = f'x (xy) , f'x (zx)

f(y) = f'y (xy) , f'y (yz)

f(z) = f'z (yz) , f'z (zx)

D. f(x) = f'x (x) , g'(x) , h'x (x,y)

f(y) = h'x (x,y)

These are the partial derivative expressions for each variable in each function. You will need to pay a lot of attention to understand:

* while differentiating X alone, functions in Y which are separated by commas from the functions in X, are ignored totally because they are different questions

* In functions where X added to Y is in a bracket e.g. (x+y), to find the derivative of X, Y isn't thrown away because they are joined (by a plus sign) the derivative of X alone in this case would be f'x (x+y)

* f(x), just like g(x), simply means/represents a function in X hence f'(x) means the differentiation of all X-terms in that function

the equation is not included but the answer is (1.50, 2.00, 2.75)
