PARTIAL
DIFFERENTIATION
• When we write u = f(x , y), we are saying that
we have a function, u, which depends on two
independent variables: x and y. We can
consider the change in u with respect to either
of these two independent variables by using
the partial derivative.
The partial derivative of u with respect to x is
written as:
the partial of u with respect to y. It is written as:
* The rule for partial derivatives is that we
differentiate with respect to one variable while
keeping all the other variables constant.
= f(x , y)
= f(x , y)
Taking the Partial Derivative of a Partial
Derivative
• So far we have defined and given examples for
first-order partial derivatives. Second-order
partial derivatives are simply the partial
derivative of a first-order partial derivative.
We can have four second-order partial
derivatives:

Maxima and Minima of Functions of
Two Variables
Let f be a function with two variables with continuous second
order partial derivatives fxx, fyy and fxy at a critical point (a,b).
Let D = fxx(a,b) fyy(a,b) - fxy
2(a,b)
• If D > 0 and fxx(a,b) > 0, then f has a relative minimum at (a,b).
• If D > 0 and fxx(a,b) < 0, then f has a relative maximum at (a,b).
• If D < 0, then f has a saddle point at (a,b).
• If D = 0, then no conclusion can be drawn.
