Answer

\[ 4 \frac{^{\circ} C}{c m}=T_{x}(1,2) \] \[ 8 \frac{^{\circ} C}{c m}=T_{y}(1,2) \]

Work Step by Step

We are given that \[ x+x^{3}+2 y^{2}=T(x, y) \] We we have to evaluate the rate of change of the Temperature with respect to distance $x$, while $y$ remains constant \[ \begin{array}{l} \frac{\partial}{\partial x} T(x, y) =T_{x}(x, y)\\ T_{x}(x, y)=\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\left(x^{3}+y^{2}+x+2\right) \\ \left.T_{x}(x, y)=\frac{d}{d x}\left(x^{3}+x\right)+2 y^{2} \frac{d}{d x}(1)\right) \\ T_{x}(x, y)=1+3 x^{2} \\ 1+3(1)^{2}= T_{x}(1,2) \\ T_{x}(1,2)=4 \frac{\mathrm{c}}{\mathrm{cm}} \end{array} \] Similarly, we obtain $T_{y}(x, y)$ \[ \begin{array}{l} \frac{\partial}{\partial y} T(x, y) =T_{y}(x, y) \\ \frac{\partial}{\partial y}\left(x+x^{3}+2 y^{2}\right)= T_{y}(x, y) \\ \left.T_{y}(x, y)=2 \frac{d}{d y}\left(y^{2}\right)\right)+\frac{d}{d y}\left(x^{3}+x\right) \\ 4 y=T_{y}(x, y) \\ 4(2)= T_{y}(1,2) \\ 8\frac{^{\circ} C}{c m}=T_{y}(1,2) \end{array} \]
