A function f is called homogeneous of degree n if it satisfies the equation f(tx, ty) = tnf(x, y) for all t, where n is a positive integer and f has continuous second-order partial derivatives. If f is homogeneous of degree n, show that fx(tx, ty) = tn − 1fx(x, y).

The answer is given below:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let u= tx,  v= ty Then

      d/dt [(f (u,v)]  = nt^n-1 f (x,y)  

Chain rule formula gives:

     ∂f/∂u x du/dt + ∂f/∂v x dv/dt = nt^n-1 f (x,y)

Therefore, x ∂f/∂u + y ∂f/∂v = nt^n-1 f (x,y) eq. 1

Put t=1 in eq. 1 :

=> x∂f/∂x + y ∂f/∂u = nf (x,y)

step-by-step explanation:

here's what happens:

1) the graph of f   = x^2 is shifted 2 units to the right.

2) the resulting graph is reflected in the x-axis, so that the parabola now opens down.

3) this final result is transformed up by 5 units.

the answer is 18 units because there are 18 small cubes inside the rectangle

hope this and p.s i am also in k12
