f(x,y) = x/y = y/x find fxx, fxy, and fyy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so do partial with respect to x and y first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll check with my answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

fx = y^-1 - 2yx^-2 = 1/y - 2y/x^2 fxx = -2y/x^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then I am stuck with fxy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

take Fx with respect to "y" so "x" is constant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1/y^2 + 1/x^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2y =2 and that looks good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem sorry I can't help with the extrema problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's ok thanks again
