f(x,y)=\dfrac{y^3}x

a. The gradient is

\nabla f(x,y)=\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}\,\vec\imath+\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}\,\vec\jmath

\boxed{\nabla f(x,y)=-\dfrac{y^3}{x^2}\,\vec\imath+\dfrac{3y^2}x\,\vec\jmath}

b. The gradient at point P(1, 2) is

\boxed{\nabla f(1,2)=-8\,\vec\imath+12\,\vec\jmath}

c. The derivative of f at P in the direction of \vec u is

D_{\vec u}f(1,2)=\nabla f(1,2)\cdot\dfrac{\vec u}{\|\vec u\|}

It looks like

\vec u=\dfrac{13}2\,\vec\imath+5\,\vec\jmath

so that

\|\vec u\|=\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{13}2\right)^2+5^2}=\dfrac{\sqrt{269}}2

Then

D_{\vec u}f(1,2)=\dfrac{\left(-8\,\vec\imath+12\,\vec\jmath\right)\cdot\left(\frac{13}2\,\vec\imath+5\,\vec\jmath\right)}{\frac{\sqrt{269}}2}

\boxed{D_{\vec u}f(1,2)=\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{269}}}

Answer:

0 and 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x² = 3

take the square root of both sides

x = {-√3, √3}

x ≈ {-1.73, 1.75}

Two consecutive integers between 1.73 and 1.75
