Solution
Partial differentiation:
It is used to differentiate functions with more than one variable.
In ordinary differentiation, the function is differentiated with respect to only one of its variables, and all other variables are taken as constants.
It is used to analyze the function for maximum and minimum values.
The partial derivative of
y
with respect to
x
is represented as
∂
y
∂
