Suppose f(x, y) = x²-y-2 (a) On your solution sheet, draw contours of the function z=f(x,y) corresponding to z = −2, −4, −6. Clearly label the axes, and the scale along each axis. Indicate clearly which contour curve is associated with which z value. (b) Find the gradient vector Vƒ(√2, 0). Draw this gradient vector on the contour diagram you sketched for part (a). (c) What is the maximum rate of change of the function at the point (√2, 0)? Enter your answer in the blank below. Round your answer to two decimal places.
