Answer

$$ \begin{aligned} d w= &\frac{10 x}{z+1} d x+\frac{2 y}{z+1} d y+\frac{-5 x^{2}-y^{2}}{(z+1)^{2}} d z\\ &= \frac{-20}{2}(0.02)+\frac{2}{2}(-0.03) +\frac{[-5(4)-1](0.02)}{(2)^{2}} \\ &=-0.2-0.03-\frac{21}{4}(0.02) \\ &=-0.335 \end{aligned} $$

Work Step by Step

$$ w=\frac{5 x^{2}+y^{2}}{z+1} $$ First find $$ \begin{aligned} f_{x}(x, y) &=\frac{(z+1) 10 x-\left(5 x^{2}+y^{2}\right)(0)}{(z+1)^{2}} \\ &=\frac{10 x}{z+1} \\ f_{y}(x, y)&=\frac{(z+1)(2 y)-\left(5 x^{2}+y^{2}\right)(0)}{(z+1)^{2}} \\ &=\frac{2 y}{z+1}\\ f_{z}(x, y)&=\frac{(z+1)(0)-\left(5 x^{2}+y^{2}\right)(1)}{(z+1)^{2}} \\ &=\frac{-5 x^{2}-y^{2}}{(z+1)^{2}} \end{aligned} $$ Here $$ d w= f_{x}(x, y, z) d x+f_{y}(x, y, z) d y+f_{z}(x, y, z) d z $$ Substitute the given values, $x=-2, y=1, z=1, d x=0.02, d y=-0.03, d z=0.02 $ , we have : $$ \begin{aligned} d w= &\frac{10 x}{z+1} d x+\frac{2 y}{z+1} d y+\frac{-5 x^{2}-y^{2}}{(z+1)^{2}} d z\\ &= \frac{-20}{2}(0.02)+\frac{2}{2}(-0.03) +\frac{[-5(4)-1](0.02)}{(2)^{2}} \\ &=-0.2-0.03-\frac{21}{4}(0.02) \\ &=-0.335 \end{aligned} $$
