Answer

\begin{aligned} \frac{\partial z }{\partial x} =-\frac{\ln y}{y^2+2z} \end{aligned} \begin{aligned} \frac{\partial z }{\partial y} =-\frac{x+2y^2z}{y^3+2yz} \\ \end{aligned}

Work Step by Step

Given $$x \ln y+y^{2} z+z^{2}=8$$ $$\Rightarrow x \ln y+y^{2} z+z^{2}-8=0$$ by letting $$F(x,y,z)= x \ln y+y^{2} z+z^{2}-8$$ So, we have $$F_x(x,y,z)=\frac{\partial F(x,y,z)}{\partial x}=\ln y\\ $$ $$F_y(x,y,z)=\frac{\partial F(x,y,z)}{\partial y}= \frac{x}{y}+2yz$$ $$F_z(x,y,z)=\frac{\partial F(x,y,z)}{\partial z}=y^2+2z$$ Also, we get \begin{aligned} \frac{\partial z }{\partial x}&=-\frac{F_{x}(x, y,z)}{F_{z}(x, y,z)} \\ &=-\frac{\ln y}{y^2+2z} \end{aligned} \begin{aligned} \frac{\partial z }{\partial y}&=-\frac{F_{y}(x, y,z)}{F_{z}(x, y,z)} \\ &=-\frac{\frac{x}{y}+2yz}{y^2+2z} \\ &=-\frac{x+2y^2z}{y^3+2yz} \\ \end{aligned}
