Answer

\begin{align*} (a)&\frac{\partial f}{\partial x} = 15x^2 +6xy^3+9y+14\\ (b)&\frac{\partial f}{\partial y} =9x^2y^2+9x\\ (c)&\frac{\partial f}{\partial x}\bigg|_{y=2} = 15x^2 +48x+86\\ \end{align*}

Work Step by Step

Given $$f(x, y)=5 x^{3}+3 x^{2} y^{3}+9 x y+14 x+8$$ Since \begin{align*} (a)&\frac{\partial f}{\partial x} = 15x^2 +6xy^3+9y+14\\ (b)&\frac{\partial f}{\partial y} =9x^2y^2+9x\\ (c)&\frac{\partial f}{\partial x}\bigg|_{y=2} = 15x^2 +48x+86\\ \end{align*}
