Answer

As a result $w_u=\frac{-e^v}{(u+v^2)^2}$, $w_v=\frac{e^v(u+v^2)-2ve^v}{(u+v^2)^2}$.

Work Step by Step

$w=\frac{e^v}{u+v^2}$ In order to find $w_u$ we treat $v$ as a constant and differentiate with respect to $u$. $w_u=\frac{-e^v}{(u+v^2)^2}$ In order to find $w_v$ we treat $u$ as a constant and differentiate with respect to $v$. $w_v=\frac{e^v(u+v^2)-2ve^v}{(u+v^2)^2}$
