Question

Transcribed Image Text:33. Figure 14.13 shows the saddle-shaped surface \( z = f(x, y) \).
(a) What is the sign of \( f_x(0, 5) \)?
(b) What is the sign of \( f_y(0, 5) \)?
**Figure 14.13 Explanation:**
The diagram depicts a three-dimensional saddle-shaped surface. The axes are labeled as \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \). A point is marked at \( (0, 5, 3) \) on the surface. The surface curves upwards along the \( x \)-axis and downwards along the \( y \)-axis, forming a saddle shape. The point indicates a location on the surface where the analysis about the sign of the partial derivatives is to be evaluated.
