Question

1) Suppose that you are climbing a hill whose shape is given by z=321?0.03x2?0.01y2 , and that you are at the point (20, 30, 300).
In which direction (unit vector) should you proceed initially in order to reach the top of the hill fastest?

(    ,   )

If you climb in that direction, at what angle above the horizontal will you be climbing initially (radian measure)  

2) Find the points on the surface 4x^2 + 3y^2 + z^2=1 at which the tangent plane is parallel to the plane -5x+2y-z=3

(   ,   ,   )

(   ,   ,   )

3) You are standing above the point (5,1) on the surface z=10-(3x^2+y^2)

a) In which direction should you walk to descend fastest (Give answer as two unit vector) direction=

b) If you start to move in this direction, what is the slope of your path?

Explanation / Answer

1) [21*k - 20*i - 30*j]/41.72 = -0.48*i -0.72*j + 0.503*k

3)

a) [-5*i - j]/5.1 = -0.98*i -0.196*j
