Mar 23, 2015 · I know how to do linear approximation with just one variable (take the derivative and such), but with two variables (and later on in the assignment, three variables) I'm a bit lost.

Sep 25, 2020 · It's a very important point that the derivative of a function (multiple variables or otherwise) is defined as the best linear approximation to the function at that point.

Jul 17, 2015 · 1) Approximation is used to compute most of the stuff on a computer, however rarely linear approximation. For example, every trigonometric function is implemented using …

Oct 22, 2016 · I know how to take linear approximations with one variable by taking the derivative, but I am a bit lost on how to do this with two variables (partial differentiation I think).
