The Implicit Function Theorem and the Marginal Rate of Substitution (4 Points) 3 An important result from multivariable calculus is the implicit function theorem which states that given a function f (x,y), the derivative of y with respect to a is given by where of/bx denotes the partial derivative of f with respect to a and af/ay denotes the partial derivative of f with respect to y. Simply stated, a partial derivative of a multivariable function is the derivative of...
1. Quick Exercises (a) In lecture 15, we showed that the canonical partition function, Q, is related to the Helmholz free energy: A = -kTinQ. Using the fundamental thermo- dynamic relation of Helmheltz free energy i.e. dA = -SAT - PDV + pdN), express P, and p in terms of Q.

Determine whether the given relation is an implicit solution to the given differential equation. Assume that the relationship does define y implicitly as a function of x and use implicit differentiation. -xy -y dy e +y=x+3, dx -wy+X -xy- dy V equivalent to dx Va solution to the differential equation. Therefore, e+ yx+3 y+x Applying implicit differentiation to the equation gives which
