Homework Statement
Find the unit vectors along which the given functions below increase and decrease most rapidly at P0 . Then find the derivatives of the functions in these directions.
Homework Equations
solution:
The Attempt at a Solution
why are the derivatives’ values along these two directions are 2*sqrt(3)?
as (∇f)(P0)= <1,1,1>, absolute value of it = sqrt(3)
why is the solution multiplied 2 for it?
thanks
