A rectangle is inscribed with its base on the x-axis and its upper corners on the parabola y = 7 − x 2 y=7-x2. what are the dimensions of such a rectangle with the greatest possible area?
Can you multiply these decimals in your head? You should be able to do it very quickly. Can you figure out the trick? 26.9 × 52.

Answer: Hello mate!
Clairaut’s Theorem says that if you have a function f(x,y) that have defined and continuous second partial derivates in (ai, bj) ∈ A
for all the elements in A, the, for all the elements on A you get:
This says that is the same taking first a partial derivate with respect to x and then a partial derivate with respect to y, that taking first the partial derivate with respect to y and after that the one with respect to x.
Now our function is u(x,y) = tan (2x + 3y), and want to verify the theorem for this, so lets see the partial derivates of u. For the derivates you could use tables, for example, using that:
and now lets derivate this with respect to y.
using that
Now if we first derivate by y, we get:
and now we derivate by x:
the mixed partial derivates are equal :)
