and the paraboloid z = x2 + y 2 is a circle. (x,y,z)(2,1,3) x + y 2 + z 2

Solution. For any point P (x, y, z) lying in the intersection, then the real numbers
x, y and z satisfy both equations: z = 2y and z = x2 + y 2 . After the projection 1. Sketch the k-level curve in xy-plane of the functions
onto the xy-plane, then the variable z will not play any role at all, i.e. we need (i) f (x, y) = x2 + y 2 = 9
to eliminate the variable z from both equations. (ii) g(x, y) = 9x2 4y 2 if k = 9, 4, 0, 4, 9.
(iii) h(x, y) = xy if k = 2, 0, 2.
2. Determine the domain and the range of f (x, y) = x2xy +y 2 . (Example 5 p.902).
Solution. (a) The fraction x2xy +y 2 is defined if the denominator x2 + y 2 = 0, i.e.
2. Describe and sketch the level surfaces of the following equations (on the other
(x, y) = (0, 0), so the largest possible domain of f is { (x, y) R2 | x2 +y 2 }= side if needed). Read p.880-885.
