tutorial.math.lamar.edu › Classes › CalcIIIMay 31, 2018 · We will call g′(a) g ′ ( a) the partial derivative of f (x,y) f ( x, y) with respect to x x at (a,b) ( a, b) and we will denote it in the following way, f x(a,b) = 4ab3 f x ( a, b) = 4 a b 3. Now, let’s do it the other way. We will now hold x x fixed and allow y y to vary. We can do this in a similar way.

Solution (a) This part of the example proceeds as follows: p = kT V, ∴ ∂p ∂T = k V, where V is treated as a constant for this calculation. (b) For this part, T is treated as a constant. Thus p = kT 1 V
