Plotting a Surface with Maple: Limiting x & y

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

To plot a surface in Maple for the function f(x,y) = (2x + y) with specific limits, use the plot3d function. The correct syntax for setting limits is to define a finite range for x and y, as Maple does not support infinity directly in this context. For example, use plot3d(f(x,y), x = 5..10, y = -infinity..2) where 10 is a chosen upper limit for x. This ensures the surface is plotted correctly within the specified constraints.

How do I use maple to plot a corresponding surface?

I have f(x,y)=(2x+y etc.
I need to plot for x greater than or equal to 5, y less than or equal to 2.

I'm guessing I probably need to do plot3d, but how do I write the limits of x and y? when I write x=5..infinity it doesn't work. Any suggestions?

You will have to choose some largest value for x and y yourself.
