Question
## Computing First-Order Partial Derivatives

### Problem Statement
Compute the first-order partial derivatives of the function:

\[ z = \sinh(6x^3 y) \]

(Use symbolic notation and fractions where needed.)

### Solution Attempts
1. **First Partial Derivative with Respect to \( x \)**:
   \[
   \frac{\partial z}{\partial x} = 18x^2 y \cos (6x^3 y)
   \]
   However, this response is marked as **Incorrect**.

2. **First Partial Derivative with Respect to \( y \)**:
   \[
   \frac{\partial z}{\partial y} = 6x^3 \cos (6x^3 y)
   \]
   This response is also marked as **Incorrect**.

### Notes:
- The notation \( \sinh(u) \) represents the hyperbolic sine function.
- It is important to consider the chain rule when differentiating functions of the form \( \sinh(g(x,y)) \).

### Graphs and Diagrams
There are no graphs or diagrams included in this problem statement.

### Correct Approach:
To correctly compute the partial derivatives, apply the chain rule appropriately.

#### Step-by-Step Solution:
1. **Compute \( \frac{\partial z}{\partial x} \)**:
   \[
   z = \sinh(6x^3 y)
   \]
   Let \( u = 6x^3 y \), then \( z = \sinh(u) \).

   Using the chain rule:
   \[
   \frac{\partial z}{\partial x} = \frac{d \sinh(u)}{du} \cdot \frac{\partial u}{\partial x}
   \]

   We know:
   \[
   \frac{d \sinh(u)}{du} = \cosh(u)
   \]
   and
   \[
   \frac{\partial u}{\partial x} = \frac{\partial (6x^3 y)}{\partial x} = 18x^2 y
   \]

   Therefore:
   \[
   \frac{\partial z}{\partial x} = \cosh(6x^3 y) \cdot 18x^2 y
   \]

2. **Compute \( \frac{\partial z}{\partial y} \)**
