As per the problem,
The larger pump takes 40 minutes to fill the pool.
The smaller one takes 60 minutes.
When both the pumps are working , let the time taken be x minutes , then we can write
Hence, when both the pumps works together, Time taken =24 minutes.
(a) This follows from the definition for the partial derivative, with the help of some limit properties and a well-known limit.
• Recall that for , we have the partial derivative with respect to
defined as
The derivative at (0, 0) is then
• By definition of ,
, so
• Expanding the tangent in terms of sine and cosine gives
• Introduce a factor of in the numerator, then distribute the limit over the resulting product as
• The first limit is 1; recall that for , we have
The second limit is also 1, which should be obvious.
• In the remaining limit, we end up with
and this is exactly the partial derivative of with respect to
.
For the same reasons shown above,
(b) To show that is differentiable at (0, 0), we first need to show that
is continuous.
• By definition of continuity, we need to show that
is very small, and that as we move the point closer to the origin,
converges to
.
We have
The first expression in the product is bounded above by 1, since for all
. Then as
approaches the origin,
So, is continuous at the origin.
• Now that we have continuity established, we need to show that the derivative exists at (0, 0), which amounts to showing that the rate at which changes as we move the point
closer to the origin, given by
approaches 0.
Just like before,
and this converges to , since differentiability of
means
So, is differentiable at (0, 0).
