Step-by-step explanation:
a)
The equation is
This question is asking for the value of the directional derivative in the direction of -j [since south that's y negative]
So, this is the negative of partial derivative of y. Thus we have:
Now we are at (100,120,1106), we take y value of 120 and put it in the partial:
We take the negative, that is -(-2.4) = 2.4
Since this is positive, we can say the hill is sloping upward at this point, so you will start to ascend.
