No justifications are needed.1)T FAny function of three variables f(x, y, z) satisfies the partial differentialequation fxyz+ fyzx= 2fzxy.2)T FIf fx(x, y) = fy(x, y) for all x, y, t hen f(x, y) is a constant.3)T F(1, 1) is a local maximum of the function f(x, y) = x2y − x + cos(y).4)T FIf f is a smooth function of two variables, then the number of critical pointsof f inside the unit disc is finite.5)T FThe value of the function f(x, y) = sin(−x + 2y) at (0.0 01, −0.002) can bylinear approximation be estimated as −0.003.6)T FIf (1, 1) is a critical po int for the function f(x, y) then (1, 1) is also a criticalpoint for the function g(x, y) = f (x2, y2).7)T FThere is no function f (x, y, z) of three variables, for which every point onthe unit sphere is a critical point.8)T FIf (x0, y0) is a maximum of f (x, y) under the constraint g(x, y) = g(x0, y0),then (x0, y0) is a maximum of g(x, y) under the constraint f(x, y) =f(x0, y0).9)T FIf ~u is a unit vector tangent at (x, y, z) to the level surface of f(x, y, z) thenDuf(x, y, z) = 0.10)T FIn cylindrical coordinates (r, θ, z), the surface z = r2describes a cone.11)T FThe function u (x, t) = x2/2 + t satisfies the heat equation ut= uxx.12)T FThe vector ~ru− ~rvis tangent to the surface parameterized by ~r(u, v) =(x(u, v), y(u, v), z(u, v)).13)T FIf (1, 1, 1) is a maximum of f under the constraints g(x, y, z) = c, h(x, y, z) =d, and the Lagrange multipliers satisfy λ = 0, µ = 0, then (1, 1, 1) is a criticalpoint of f.14)T FIf (0, 0) is a critical point of f(x, y) and the discriminant D is zero butfxx(0, 0) > 0 then (0, 0) can not be a local maximum.15)T FLet (x0, y0) be a saddle point of f(x, y). For any unit vector ~u, there arepoints arbitrarily close to (x0, y0) for which ∇f is parallel to ~u.16)T FA function f(x, y) on the plane f or which the absolute minimum and theabsolute maximum are the same must be constant.17)T FThe sign of the Lagrange multiplier tells whether the critical point of f(x, y)constrained to g(x, y) = 0 is a local maximum or a local minimum.18)T FThe gradient of a function f (x, y, z) is tangent to the level surfaces of f19)T FThe point (0, 1) is a local minimum of the function x3+ (sin(y − 1))2.20)T FIf Duf(x, y, z) = 0 for all unit vectors u, then (x, y, z) is a critical point.Space for workProblem 2) (10 points)Match t he parametric surfaces with their parameterization.

(Here, log means the natural logarithm).Space for workProblem 4) (10 points)Consider the equationf(x, y) = 2y3+ x2y2− 4xy + x4= 0It defines a curve, which you can see in the picture. Nearthe point x = 1, y = 1, the f unction can be written asa graph y = y(x). Find the slope of tha t graph at thepoint (1 , 1).-2 -1.5 -1 -0.5 0.5 1x-2-1.5-1-0.50.51ySpace for workProblem 5) (10 points)Find and classify all the critical points of the function f (x, y) = xy(4 − x2− y2).Space for workProblem 6) (10 points)Let f(x, y) = e(x−y)so that f(log(2), log(2)) = 1. Find the equation for the tangent planeto the graph of f at the point (log(2), log(2)) and use it to estimate f (log(2) +0.1, log(2) +0.004).Remark: As usual on the college life a s well asin galaxy life, log denotes t he natural logarithm.There is no particular reason (except maybe athigh school) to think, an other base is natural,except f or the fact that we earthlings have 10 fin-gers. I’m sure you can read this word of wisdomsomewhere in a ”manual to the galaxy”.Space for workProblem 7) (10 points)Consider the graph of the function h(x, y) = e−3x−y+ 4.a) (2 points) Find a function g(x, y, z) of three variables such that this surface is the levelset of g.b) (2 points) Find a vector normal to the tangent plane of this surface at (x, y, z).c) (2 points) Is this tangent plane ever horizontal?

In quantum mechanics, E is the ground state energy of a particle in a box withdimensions x, y, z. The constant k is usually denoted by ¯h and called the Planck constant.Space for workProblem 9) (10 points)Assume F (x, y) = g(x2+ y2), where g is a function of one var ia ble.

Show that g is a solutionof the pa rt ia l differential equationf2x+ f2y= 1outside the curve.Hint: here no computations are needed. The shape o f the curve is pretty much irrelevant.What does the PDE say about the gradient ∇f?Remark: This example just needs thought. Use it as a ”pillow problem” that is thinkabout it before going to sleep. By the way, the PDE is called eiconal equation. Itdescribes wave fronts in optics.Space for
