Answer:

Directional derivative = 1/√2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given f(x, y) = y cos(xy)

Now, we know that;

∇f(x, y) = ycos xy

Thus, applying that to the question, we have;

∇f(x, y) = [-y² sin xy, cos (xy) - xy sin xy]

At coordinates (0,1),we now have;

∇f(0, 1) = [-1²•sin0, (cos 0) - 0]

∇f(0, 1) = [0, 1]

Now, unit vector indicated by the angle θ is given as; u = [cos θ, sin θ]

From the question, since θ = π/4, thus

u = [cos π/4, sin π/4]

Cos π/4 in surd form is; 1/√2

Also, sin π/4 in surd form is; 1/√2

So, u = [1/√2, 1/√2]

Directional derivative = [∇f(0, 1)] • u

= [0, 1] × [1/√2, 1/√2] = 0 + 1/√2 = 1/√2

Sindrei [870]
The first and only stop of the flight can be Boise, Omaha or Chicago. This means there are 3 possibilities where to stop. From thee the flight connects to New York City, either to La Guardia or to JFK Airport.
1 possible route: Seattle-Boise-La Guardia
<span>2 possible route: Seattle-Omaha-La Guardia
</span><span>3 possible route: Seattle-Chicago-La Guardia
</span><span>4 possible route: Seattle-Boise-NYC
</span><span>5 possible route: Seattle-Omaha-NYC
</span><span>6 possible route: Seattle-Chicago-NYC
</span>
Or in other words: There are two airports where the flight can arrive and for each of them there are three possible routes. So, in total there are 2*3=6 possible routes.
