Normalizing this vector yields

(b) The gradient vector of f at (-3,4) is perpendicular to the level curve through (-3,4).
Evaluating ▽f at (-3,4), we find
▽f(−3,4) =

Therefore, the line that is perpendicular to the level curve passing through (-3,4) has the form

We use the partial fraction method to integrate the left-hand side.

y(y−4) = A
y + B y−4
= (A+B)y−4A y(y−4) Comparing the last term to the integrand, we find
A+B = 0 and −4A= 1 and thus
A= −1
4 and B = 1 4. Using the partial fraction decomposition, we must integrate

Z ( 1

4(ln|y−4| −ln|y|) = 1/2x+C1. Simplifying this results in

|y−4
y | = e4C1e2x y−4
y = ±e4C1e2x y−4
y = Ce2x. Using the initial conditony(0) =−3, we find

If we want the solution in the formy=f(x), we must solve for y. We find

Solve
D1T(x, y) = 2x−1 D2T(x, y) =−4y , we find (x, y) = (1/2,0). But
△(1/2,0) = det

F(x, y, λ) =x22y2−x+λ(x2+y2−1).
Then

∂F
∂y(x, y, λ) = −4y+ 2yλ
∂F
∂λ(x, y, λ) = x2+y2−1
Solve
∂F
∂x(x, y, λ) = 0
∂F
∂y(x, y, λ) = 0
∂F
∂λ(x, y, λ) = 0
, we find y = 0 or λ= 2. and x=±p
1−y2 =±1 or x= 16. Substituting x, we findy =±√635. Now,
