Duration: 1 hour
Problem 1 (answer on page 1 of the booklet)
Find the domain of the function 𝑓(𝑥, 𝑦, 𝑧) = √𝑥2 + 𝑦2 + 𝑧2 − 1 + ln(4 − 𝑥2 − 𝑦2 − 𝑧2). Determine if the
domain of 𝑓 is an open region, a closed region or neither? Also, determine if the domain is bounded or
unbounded. Also find the equation of the level curve through the point(1,1,0). (8 pts)

Problem 5 (answer on pages 5 and 6 of the booklet)
Suppose that the directions of zero change of a function 𝑓(𝑥, 𝑦, 𝑧) at the point (1,1,0) are 𝑖⃗ − 𝑗⃗ and −𝑖⃗ + 𝑗⃗.
Suppose also that the derivative of the function 𝑓(𝑥, 𝑦, 𝑧) increases most rapidly at the point (2,0,1) in the
direction of 𝐴 = 2𝑖 + 𝑗 − 𝑘 and the value of derivative at this point is 2√6. Also suppose that
𝑓(1,1,0) = 3, 𝑓(3,1,4) = 2 , 𝑓(2,0,1) = 6 and ∇𝑓(3,1,4) = 3𝑖 − 2𝑗 + 𝑘.
