### Problem Set

#### Given the function \( z = f(x,y) = \ln(x^2 + xy - y^2) \), find the following:

**a)** Find **gradient** at the point \((2,3)\).

\[ \nabla f(2,3) = \]

**b)** Given the unit vector \( \vec{u} = \frac{7}{25} \vec{i} - \frac{24}{25} \vec{j} \), find the **directional derivative** at the point \((2,3)\).

\[ D_{\vec{u}} f(2,3) = \]

**c)** In which **unit direction** does the graph of \( z = f(x,y) \) have its **steepest decline** at the point \((2,3)\), and what is this **decline**?

**d)** In which **direction** is the graph of \( z = f(x,y) \) **level** at the point \((2,3)\)?
