Answer

$\dfrac{\partial T}{\partial p} =0$; $\dfrac{\partial T}{\partial q} =\dfrac{-1}{8}$; and $\dfrac{\partial T}{\partial r} =\dfrac{1}{32}$

Work Step by Step

Here, we have $\dfrac{\partial T}{\partial p} =0$ and $\dfrac{\partial T}{\partial q} =\dfrac{ (2 q \sqrt {r}+\sqrt q r)-(\sqrt qr)(2 \sqrt r+\dfrac{r}{2 \sqrt q})}{(2q\sqrt r+\sqrt qr)^2}$; when $p=2; q=1; r=4$, we have $\dfrac{\partial T}{\partial q} =\dfrac{ -8}{64}=\dfrac{-1}{8}$; and $\dfrac{\partial T}{\partial r} =\dfrac{ (2 q \sqrt {r}+\sqrt q r)(\sqrt q)-(\sqrt qr)(\dfrac{q}{\sqrt r}+\sqrt q)}{(2q\sqrt r+\sqrt qr)^2}$; when $p=2; q=1; r=4$, we have $\dfrac{\partial T}{\partial r} =\dfrac{2}{64}=\dfrac{1}{32}$; Hence, we have $\dfrac{\partial T}{\partial p} =0$; $\dfrac{\partial T}{\partial q} =\dfrac{-1}{8}$; and $\dfrac{\partial T}{\partial r} =\dfrac{1}{32}$
