Assume that \(f (x, y)\) is differentiable at \(\left(x_{0}, y_{0}\right)\) and let \(\Delta f\) denote the change in f from its value at \(\left(x_{0}, y_{0}\right)\) to its value at \(\left(x_{0}+\Delta x, y_{0}+\Delta y\right)\). 1. \(\Delta \mathrm{f} \approx\) _______ 2. The limit that guarantees the error in the approximation in part (a) is very small when both \(\Delta \mathrm{x}\) and \(\Delta \mathrm{y}\) are close to 0 is _______ .

Question
A function \(f\) is given along with a local linear approximation \(L\) to \(f\) at a point \(P\). Use the information given to determine point \(P\).
\(f(x, y)=x^{2} y ; L(x, y)=4 y-4 x+8\)
Solution
The first step in solving 13.4 problem number 50 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A function \(f\) is given along with a local linear approximation \(L\) to \(f\) at a point \(P\). Use the information given to determine point \(P\).\(f(x, y)=x^{2} y ; L(x, y)=4 y-4 x+8\)
From the textbook chapter Differentiability, Differentials, and Local Linearity you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
