We'll calculate the partial derivative fx, differentiating
the expression of f(x,y), with respect to x, assuming that y is a
constant.
fx = df/dx = d
(x*e^xy)/dx
Since it is about a product, we'll apply the
product rule:
d (x*e^xy)/dx = (x)'*e^xy +
x*(e^xy)'
d (x*e^xy)/dx = e^xy +
x*y*e^xy
fx = (1 +
x*y)*e^xy
Now, we'll determine the partial derivative fy,
differentiating the expression of f(x,y), with respect to y, assuming that x is a
constant.
fy = df/dy = d
(x*e^xy)/dy
d (x*e^xy)/dy = (x)'*e^xy +
x*(e^xy)'
Since x is a constant, (x)' =
0
d (x*e^xy)/dy = 0 +
x*x(e^xy)
fy =
x^2*(e^xy)
The partial derivatives are: fx =
(1 + x*y)*e^xy ; fy = x^2*(e^xy).
