Homework Statement
[PLAIN]http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/7163/partialdifferent.jpg
So this means differentiate w.r.t y first, so I want dz/dy, and then w.r.t x right?
so I rearrange so that y=z3/3 + xz
and differentiate w.r.t z to get dy/dz, and then do 1 over this which i get as:
1/(z2+x)
and then differentiating this w.r.t x, I get
-1/(z2+x)2
which isn't quite right. Can anyone see where I've gone wrong? Thanks.
