Explanation Given information: a , b ≥ 0 lim ( x , y ) → ( 0 , 0 ) x a y b x 2 + y 2 Calculation: We will find the limit along x -axis. We know that y = 0 on the x -axis. So lim x → 0 f ( x , 0 ) = lim x → 0 x a ( 0 ) b x 2 + ( 0 ) 2 = 0 Hence as ( x , y ) → ( 0 , 0 ) , f ( x , y ) → 0 along x -axis. Now we will calculate limit along y -axis. So lim y → 0 f ( 0 , y ) = lim y → 0 ( 0 ) a ( y ) b 0 2 + ( y ) 2 = 0 Hence as ( x , y ) → ( 0 , 0 ) , f ( x , y ) → 0 along y -axis

Limits of Multivariable Functions

Multivariable calculus is an extension of single variable calculus. It involves several variables instead of just one. Assume there is an open set containing points (x0, y0), let f be a function defined in that open interval except for the points (x0, y0…

The graph of f(x) is given below. Select each true statement about the continuity of f(x) at x = 1. Select all that apply: ☐ f(x) is not continuous at x = 1 because it is not defined at x = 1. ☐ f(x) is not continuous at x = 1 because lim f(x) does not exist. x+1 ☐ f(x) is not continuous at x = 1 because lim f(x) ‡ f(1). x+→1 ☐ f(x) is continuous at x = 1.

A homeware company has been approached to manufacture a cake tin in the shape of a "ghost" from the Pac-Man video game to celebrate the 45th Anniversary of the games launch. The base of the cake tin has a characteristic dimension / and is illustrated in Figure 1 below, you should assume the top and bottom of the shape can be represented by semi-circles. The vertical sides of the cake tin have a height of h. As the company's resident mathematician, you need to find the values of r and h that minimise the internal surface area of the cake tin given that the volume of the tin is Vfixed- 2r Figure 1 - Plan view of the "ghost" cake tin base. (a) Show that the Volume (V) of the cake tin as a function of r and his 2(+1)²h V = 2
