What is the partial derivatives of this function?
2 Answers
Explanation:
a). Here, we will regard all
We could just jump in and apply the Chain Rule, but use the logarithmic properties to your advantage and simplify a bit. We will still end up applying the Chain Rule, but only once.
Then,
Note that when differentiating
b. Again, use the simplified form of the function:
And differentiate with respect to
Explanation:
Given:
Bring the square root outside as
The partial derivatives become trivial:
