Help with 2 variables functions.
Hmmmm.
If you look at 5, you see it's a sphere so the level curves should be circles.
\[ z=\sqrt{25-x^2-y^2}\implies x^2+y^2+z^2=5^2 \]
Or rather, it is an upper hemipshere
Looking at 3\[ z=\frac{1}{x-1}\implies xz-z=1\implies x=\frac{1+z}{z} \]So \(x\) will be constant when \(z\) is constant... meaning straight lines
By the way, 1 is a cylinder so it will be equally spaced circles, while 5 will be concentric circles
@MarcLeclair Are you following?
sorry I was doing something but there's one thing that throws me off and that is when we say equally spaced and unequally spaced, how do I figure that out?
I mean if I draw the level curve of a sphere, it will be equally spaced out no? I mean the radius will change but not the space between each level curve
|dw:1381821402761:dw| As you get close, the level curves get closer.
