a)
Observe that 𝐴 = ℝ × ℝ and that 𝐵 = {(1,1)}.
Conclude that 𝐶 = (]−∞, 0] × ℝ) ∪ {(1,1)} and represent it geometrically.
b)
Observe that 𝑔 does not necessarily admit a global minimum in 𝐶 : for example, 𝑔(𝑥, 𝑦) = 𝑥
is continuous on 𝐶 and, nevertheless, 𝑔(𝐶 ) = ℝ does not admit a minimum.
Remark: Weierstrass Theorem does not apply to 𝑔 on 𝐶 , since 𝐶 is not a compact set, as it
is unbounded.
c)
𝑏 ∈ ℝ arbitrarily fixed
Recognize that the continuity of 𝑓 at (0, 𝑏), accumulation point of 𝐷 , is equivalent to
lim 𝑓(𝑥, 𝑦) = 𝑓(0, 𝑏).
( , )→( , )
Observe that 𝑓(0, 𝑏) = 𝑏 .
Observe that lim 𝑓(𝑥, 𝑦) = lim 𝑦 =𝑏 .

d)
Observe that 𝑓 (0,0) = (𝑦 ) (0,0) = 0.
Observe that 𝑓 (0 , 0) = (𝑦 ) (0,0) = 0.
Verify, by the definition of derivative, that 𝑓 (0 , 0) = 0.
Conclude from 𝑓 (0 , 0) = 0 = 𝑓 (0 , 0) that 𝑓 (0,0) = 0.
Verify that the approximation error is given by 𝑅(𝑥, 𝑦) = 𝑓(𝑥, 𝑦), so that 𝑓 is differentiable
( , )
at (0,0) if and only if lim = 0.

a)
Write the equation of the tangent line:
𝑧 = 𝑓 (1,1) + 𝑓 (1,1)(𝑥 − 1) + 𝑓 (1,1)(𝑦 − 1).
Recognize that 𝑓 (1,1) = 2, from 𝑧 = 2𝑥 − 𝑦 + 5.
Realise that 𝑓 (1,1) = −1.
Conclude that 𝑓 (1,1) = 𝑓 (1,1) = 1, according to the Schwarz-Young Theorem,
since 𝑓 is 𝐶 at (1,1).
Conclude that 𝑧 = 2 − 𝑥 + 𝑦.
b)
Write 𝑔(𝑢, 𝑣) = 0 ⇔ 𝑓( , ) (1,1) = 0.
Recognize that, if 𝑓 is differentiable at (1,1), then 𝑓( , ) (1,1) = ∇𝑓(1,1). (𝑢, 𝑣).
Recognize that 𝑓 (1,1) = −1, from 𝑧 = 2𝑥 − 𝑦 + 5.
Write ∇𝑓(1,1). (𝑢, 𝑣) = 0 ⇔ (2, −1). (𝑢, 𝑣) = 0 ⇔ 2𝑢 = 𝑣.
Recognize that the level curve of level 0 of 𝑔 is given by:
{(𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ ℝ \{(0,0)}: 2𝑢 = 𝑣} or, alternately, {(𝑢, 2𝑢) ∈ ℝ : 𝑢 ≠ 0}
c)
Recognize that since 𝑓 is differentiable at (1,1), then the minimum of 𝑔(𝑢, 𝑣) =
∇ ( , )
𝑓( , ) (1,1), where ‖(𝑢, 𝑣)‖ = 2, will occur at (𝑢, 𝑣) = −2 ‖∇ ( , )‖
to force the norm
of (𝑢, 𝑣) to be equal to 2.
Conclude that (𝑢, 𝑣) = , and the minimum of 𝑔 is:
√ √

a)
Recognize that the direct computation of the limit leads to an indeterminate form of type
(having in consideration the continuity of the indefinite integral, following that of 𝑓, according
to the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus).
Recognize that, according to Cauchy’s Rule and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus,
( ) 1
∫ 𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡 𝑓(ln(𝑒𝑥)). 𝑥 − 𝑓(2𝑥 − 1). 2
lim = lim = 2𝑓(1) − 𝑓(ln(𝑒)) = 𝑓(1) = 𝑒,
→ 1−𝑥 → −1
b)
Observe that 𝑓 is an odd function and, therefore, ∫ 𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡 = − ∫ 𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡.
Conclude that ∫ 𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡 = ∫ 𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡 + ∫ 𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡 = 0.
