x4 − y 4 + 4x2 + 4y 2
III. Evaluate lim .
(x,y)→(0,0) x2 + y 2
ln(1 − y) − x + 1
IV. Show that f (x, y) = has an essential discontinuity at (x, y) = (1, 0).
2x + y − 2
V. Show that the function f (x, y) = cosh(x−2y)+(1−x−y)2 satisfies the partial differential
equation
2fxx (x, y) + fyx (x, y) = 6.
√ p
VI. Use the linearization of g(x, y) = 3
x − 4y at (4, −1) to estimate 3
(3.76) − 4(−0.97).
VII. A box is to be covered with metal that is 58 cm thick for each of the side faces, and 16
5
cm
thick for the top and bottom faces. If the length and width of the base are 20 cm and
16 cm respectively, and the height is 10 cm, use differentials to approximate the amount
of metal needed.
VIII. Let z = cos(y − x) + tan(x2 − 4), where x = s − et and y = 2 + st2 . Use the multivariate
∂z
chain rule to evaluate when (s, t) = (3, 0).
∂t
IX. Let z be a differentiable function of x and y defined by the equation
z
− 4xz = tan−1 (y − x2 ).
xy

Use the implicit function theorem to find . Do not simplify.
