Course Description

Overview

Learn about partial derivatives in this comprehensive 35-minute video tutorial. Explore the concept of partial derivatives for multivariable functions, understanding their similarities to regular derivatives from Calculus 1. Discover how to calculate partial derivatives, including first-order and second-order derivatives, as well as mixed partials. Understand the notation used for partial derivatives, both subscription and Leibniz notations. Follow along with step-by-step examples to solve partial derivatives and find their values at specific points. Gain insights into why mixed second-order partials are always equal and how many partial derivatives you'll encounter for different types of functions.
