About this document
Partial Derivatives and Calculations by Mengistu Tagele is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1. Partial derivatives allow us to calculate the instantaneous rate of change of a function of multiple variables with respect to each individual variable. 2. The partial derivative of a function f(x,y) with respect to x, denoted fx(x,y), describes the slope of the function in the x-direction. The partial derivative with respect to y, fy(x,y), describes the slope in the y-direction. 3. Partial derivatives become important tools for optimization problems that involve functions of multiple variables.
