Answer

$4xy^3dx+6x^2y^2dy$

Work Step by Step

To find the total differential of z, denoted $dz$, use the following formula. $dz=\frac{dz}{dx}dx+\frac{dz}{dy} dy$ which can also be written as $dz=f_{x}(x,y)dx+f_{y}(x,y)dy$ Note that these are partial derivatives of $f(x,y)$ in terms of x and y. $f(x,y)=z=2x^2y^3$ $dz=4xy^3dx+6x^2y^2dy$
