Why Partial Differentiation is used?


Open in App
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 yx.
