We expect that students who do well on the midterm exam in a course will usually also do well on the final exam. Gary Smith of Pomona College looked at the exam scores of all 346 students who took his statistics class over a 10-year period. Assume that both the midterm and final exam were scored out of 100 points. The actual least-squares line for predicting final-exam score y from midterm-exam score x was
Predict the score of a student who scored 50 on the midterm and a student who scored 100 on the midterm.

Given least-squares regresion line:
To predict the score of a student who scored 50 on the midterm, we replace x by 50 in least-squares regression line and evaluate:
Thus the predicted final score of the student is then 67.1. To predict the score of student who scored 100 on the midterm, we replace x by 100 in the least-squares regression line and evaluate:
Thus the predicted final score student is then 87.6.
In a regression analysis, the variable that is being predicted is the "dependent variable."
a. Intervening variable
b. Dependent variable
c. None
d. Independent variable

Multiplicative inverse of 1/7 is _?
Does the series converge or diverge this
Use Lagrange multipliers to find the point on a surface that is closest to a plane.
Find the point on closest to using Lagrange multipliers.
I recognize as my constraint but am unable to recognize the distance squared I am trying to minimize in terms of 3 variables. May someone help please.
Just find the curve of intersection between and
Which equation illustrates the identity property of multiplication? A B C D
The significance of partial derivative notation
If some function like depends on just one variable like , we denote its derivative with respect to the variable by:
Now if the function happens to depend on variables we denote its derivative with respect to the th variable by:
Now my question is what is the significance of this notation? I mean what will be wrong if we show "Partial derivative" of with respect to like this? :
Does the symbol have a significant meaning?
The function is a differentiable function at such that and for every . Define , with the given about. Is it possible to calculate or , or ?
Given topological spaces , consider a multivariable function such that for any , the functions in the family are all continuous. Must itself be continuous?
Let be an independent variable. Does the differential dx depend on ?(from the definition of differential for variables & multivariable functions)
Let and let . Then find derivative of , denoted by .
So, Derivative of if exists, will satisfy .
if and ,
1) 𝑎𝑛𝑑 so his means that the function is a function of one variable which is
2) while we were computing 𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑖𝑎𝑙 𝑑𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑣𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒𝑠 we treated and as two independent variables although that changes as changes but while doing the 𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑖𝑎𝑙 𝑑𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑣𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒𝑠 w.r.t we treated and as two independent varaibles and considered as a constant
Let be defined as
then check whether its differentiable and also whether its partial derivatives ie are continuous at . I dont know how to check the differentiability of a multivariable function as I am just beginning to learn it. For continuity of partial derivative I just checked for as function is symmetric in and . So turns out to be
which is definitely not as . Same can be stated for . But how to proceed with the first part?
