You are walking on the surface described by f(x, y) = 3x^2 + 4xy + 6y^2. You arrive at the location P(0, 1, 6) and decide from that point on you want to walk in the direction of steepest ascent. Give a unit vector that gives the direction of steepest ascent from P, and give the rate of change of the ascent, with appropriate units (assuming distance on the surface z = f(x, y) is measured in meters).

Quantities that have magnitude and direction but not position. Some examples of vectors are velocity, displacement, acceleration, and force. They are sometimes called Euclidean or spatial vectors.
