### Gradient Evaluation Problem

Consider the function:

\[ f(x, y) = 6 - \frac{x}{5} - \frac{y}{4} \]

Find \( D_{\mathbf{u}}f(7, 6) \), where \( \mathbf{u} = \cos(\theta)\mathbf{i} + \sin(\theta)\mathbf{j} \).

#### Compute the Directional Derivative for:

(a) \( \theta = \frac{\pi}{4} \)

\[ D_{\mathbf{u}}f(7, 6) = \boxed{\phantom{0}} \]

(b) \( \theta = \frac{2\pi}{3} \)

\[ D_{\mathbf{u}}f(7, 6) = \boxed{\phantom{0}} \]

(c) \( \theta = \frac{4\pi}{3} \)

\[ D_{\mathbf{u}}f(7, 6) = \boxed{\phantom{0}} \]

(d) \( \theta = -\frac{\pi}{6} \)

\[ D_{\mathbf{u}}f(7, 6) = \boxed{\phantom{0}} \]
