CHAPTER 3

PARTIAL DERIVATIVES

Lecture1-Chapter 3
Partial Derivatives
(Derivative of Multi-Variable
Function)
Partial Derivatives

• Function of one variable y=f(x)

𝑑𝑦
𝑦= 𝑥2 +2 → = 𝑦 ′ = 2𝑥
𝑑𝑥

• Function of 2 variables Z=f(x,y) where x and y are both independent


variables, so we can differentiate Z with respect to each of them, and
we expect different results.

𝑍(𝑥,𝑦) = 𝑥 + 2𝑦 + ln 𝑥𝑦

First Order Partial Derivatives

𝜕𝑍
 is read as “first partial derivative of Z with respect to x”, and
𝜕𝑥
means differentiate w.r.t x holding y constant and also written as Zx

𝜕𝑍
 is read as “first partial derivative of Z with respect to y”, and
𝜕𝑦
means differentiate w.r.t y holding x constant and also written as Zy

𝑍𝑥𝑥 = 6

𝑍𝑦 = 2𝑥 + 2𝑦 + 1

𝑍𝑦𝑦 = 2

𝑍𝑦𝑥 = 2 (differentiate first with respect to x then y)

𝑊𝑥 = 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑦 + 𝑦𝑒 𝑥

𝑊𝑥𝑥 = 0 + 𝑦(𝑒 𝑥 ) = 𝑦𝑒 𝑥

𝑊𝑦 = 𝑥(−𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑦) + (1)𝑒 𝑥
