Question
Find the gradient at the point.$$f(x, y, z)=x^{2}+y^{2}-z^{4}, \text { at }(3,2,1)$$
Step 1
The gradient of a function is a vector that points in the direction of the greatest rate of increase of the function, and whose magnitude is the rate of increase in that direction. The gradient is found by taking the partial derivatives of the function with Show more…
