Answer

$f_{x}=32xy(5y^{3}+2x^{2}y)^{7}$ and $f_{y}=8(5y^{3}+2x^{2}y)^{7} (15y^{2}+2x^{2})$

Work Step by Step

Given: $f(x,y)=(5y^{3}+2x^{2}y)^{8}$ Need to find first partial derivatives $f_{x}$ and $f_{y}$. Differentiate the function with respect to $x$ keeping $y$ constant. $f_{x}=8(5y^{3}+2x^{2}y)^{8-1}\times4xy$ $f_{x}=32xy8(5y^{3}+2x^{2}y)^{7}$ Differentiate the function with respect to $y$ keeping $x$ constant. $f_{y}=8(5y^{3}+2x^{2}y)^{8-1}\times (15y^{2}+2x^{2})$ Hence, $f_{x}=32xy(5y^{3}+2x^{2}y)^{7}$ and $f_{y}=8(5y^{3}+2x^{2}y)^{7} (15y^{2}+2x^{2})$
