Question
Solve the equation
Solve for x
Solve for y
Solve for z
x=−y2+z2x=−−y2+z2
Evaluate
z2−x2=y2×1
Any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same
z2−x2=y2
Move the expression to the right-hand side and change its sign
−x2=y2−z2
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
x2=−y2+z2
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
x=±−y2+z2
Solution
x=−y2+z2x=−−y2+z2

Find the partial derivative
Find ∂x∂z by differentiating the equation directly
Find ∂y∂z by differentiating the equation directly
∂x∂z=zx
Evaluate
z2−x2=y2×1
Any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same
z2−x2=y2
Find ∂x∂z by taking the derivative of both sides with respect to x
∂x∂(z2−x2)=∂x∂(y2)
Use differentiation rule ∂x∂(f(x)±g(x))=∂x∂(f(x))±∂x∂(g(x))
∂x∂(z2)−∂x∂(x2)=∂x∂(y2)
Evaluate
