Answer

\[ \begin{array}{l} \left.\frac{d z}{d x}\right|_{y=1}=8 \\ \left.\frac{d z}{d x}\right|_{x=-1}=-2 \end{array} \]

Work Step by Step

\[ -1=x \text { and } 4 y^{2}+x^{2}=z \] Thus, now obtaining the intersection point of both curves: \[ \begin{array}{l} (-1)^{2}+4 y^{2}=z\\ 1+4 y^{2}=z \end{array} \] Differentiating: \[ \frac{d}{d y}\left(1+4 y^{2}\right)=\frac{d z}{d y} \] \[ 8 y= \frac{d z}{d y} \] At the point (-1,1,5) \[ \begin{array}{l} \left.\frac{d z}{d y}\right|_{y=1}=8(1) \\ \left.\frac{d z}{d y}\right|_{y=1}=8 \end{array} \] $[b]$ similarly, for the plane $1=y$ Obtaining the intersection point of both curves: \[ \begin{array}{l} 4(1)^{2} +x^{2}=z\\ 4+x^{2}=z \end{array} \] Differentiating: \[ \frac{d}{d x}\left(4+x^{2}\right)=\frac{d z}{d x} \] \[ 2 x=\frac{d z}{d x} \] At the point (-1,1,5) \[ \begin{array}{l} \left.\frac{d z}{d x}\right|_{x=-1}=2(-1) \\ \left.\frac{d z}{d x}\right|_{x=-1}=-2 \end{array} \]
