(11) I. Find the maximum and minimum values of the function

f ( x , y )= 1 + x โˆ’ y on the set [0,1] ร— [0,1].

(21) II. Suppose f ( x , y , z )= x^2 y^3 + xy โˆ’ z โˆ’ 3 y and a = (1, 1, 1).

A. โˆ‡ f(x,y,z) =

B. โˆ‡ f ( a ) =

C. The directional derivative of f at a in the direction parallel to x = (1, 2, 3) is

(28) III. Suppose f^ :^ โ„œ^3 โ†’โ„œ^3 such that

f ( x , y , z )=( y , x^2 , z ) for all ( x , y , z )โˆˆโ„œ^3 and that a = (1, 2, 3).

A. The Jacobian matrix of f at a ,

J f ( a ) =

B. The (total) derivative of f at a ,

( Df ( a ))(x, y, z) =

C. curl f ( a ) =

D. div f ( a ) =

(10) VI. The point (0, 2) is a critical point of f (^ x , y )= 2 x^2 + x^2 y + y^2 โˆ’^4 y. Use the Second

Derivative Test to determine whether (0, 2) is a local minimum, a local maximum, or neither.

(10) VII. Suppose f ( x , y , z )= x + y^2 โˆ’ z^3 and g ( s , t )= ( st , s โˆ’ t , s + t ) Use the chain rule to

find the derivative of f ฮฟ g at the point (1, 1).
