(a)
To calculate: The slopes of the graph for the years 2010 and 2012 if the number of farms from 2007 to 2013 can be modeled by
(b)
To calculate: The comparison between the above result obtained with those in exercise 6 where the graph represents the number of farms in United States from 2008 through 2013 where t represents the year, with t as 8 equals to 2008.
(c)
The interpretation of the slope of the graph if the revenue from 2007 to 2013 can be modeled by

Interpret the solution of this equa- by the equation F(x, y) = tion as the set of points (x, y) that lie on the intersection of the F(x, y) with the xy-plane (z = 0). surface Z = a. Make a sketch of a surface and its intersection with the xy-plane. Give a geometric interpretation of the result that dy dx = Fx F χ y b. Explain geometrically what happens at points where F = 0. yarrow_forwardExample 3.2.
