amistre64 · Answer

all of them?

amistre64 · Answer

that sounds like alot

anonymous · Answer

I have z(xx) = 3ye^-x
z(yy) = 2xe^y
and z(xy) = 2e^y + 3e^x

amistre64 · Answer

Zx = 2e^y +3ye^-x

amistre64 · Answer

Zy = 2xe^y -3e^-x

anonymous · Answer

Yea that is what I have for both first partial derivatives.

amistre64 · Answer

Zxx = -3ye^-x

Zxy = 2e^y +3e^-x

Zyy = 2xe^y

Zyx = 2e^y +3e^-x
