QUESTION 14 Suppose $x = s^2$, $y = st$ and $z = tu$. The function $W = f(x,y,z)$ has the partial derivatives $W_x = W_y = W_z = 4$ $W_{xx} = W_{yy} = W_{zz} = W_{xy} = W_{xz} = W_{yz} = 1$ at the point $(x,y,z) = (4,7,1)$. Find $W_{ss}$ at that point.

Step 1
First, we need to use the given partial derivatives to find the second-order partial derivatives: Wxx = WxxxX + WxxyY + WxxzZ = WxxX Wyy = WxyxX + WyyyY + WyyzZ = WyyY Wzz = WxzxX + WyzY + WzzzZ = WzzZ Wxy = WxyX + WyyY + WxyzZ = WxyX Wxz = WxxX + WyzY + WxzzZ = Show more…

Suppose x = s^2, y = st and z = tu. The function w = f(x, y, z) has the partial derivatives w_x = w_y = w_z = 2 w_xx = w_yy = w_zz = w_xy = w_xz = w_yz = 3 at the point (x, y, z) = (4, 14, 1). Find w_ss at that point.
