Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.

6.40) my professor says I have to explain the steps in the solved problems in the picture. Not just copy eveything down from the text.

Transcribed Image Text:Mean value theorem
6.40.
Prove the mean value theorem for functions of two variables.
Let f(t) = f(x, + ht, Yo + kt). By the mean value theorem for functions of one variable,
F(1) = F(0) = F'(0) 0 < 0 < 1
(1)
CHAPTER 6 Partial Derivatives
151
If x = x, + ht, y = y + kt, then F(t) = f(x, y), so that by Problem 6.17,
F'(1) =f. (dv/dt) +f,(dy/dt) = hf, + kf, and F(0) = hf,(xo + Oh, yo + Ok) + kf,(xo + Oh, yo + Ok)
where 0 <0<1. Thus, (1) becomes
f(x, + h, yo + k) – f (Xp» Yo) = hf,(x, + Oh, yo + Ok) + kf,(x, + 0h, yo + Ok)
(2)
where 0 <0<1 as required.
Note that Equation (2), which is analogous to Equation (1) of Problem 6.14, where h= Ax, has the advan-
tage of being more symmetric (and also more useful), since only a single number 0 is involved.
