Homework Set 1
This homework set is due on Friday, June 21. Except where otherwise noted, each problem is worth
5 points.
Section 11.1
1. Find the domain and range of the function f (x, y, z) =
p

2. Find the domain and range of the function f (x, y) = ln |x2 + y 2 − 4|.
3. Let f (x, y) = y + x2 . Sketch the level curves f (x, y) = k, for k = 0, 1, 2, 3, in the xy-plane.
Use these level curves to sketch the graph of f in 3-D space.
4. Describe the level curves of the function f (x, y) = ln |x2 + 4y 2 |. Use this description to sketch
the graph of f in 3-D space.
5. Sketch two sections of the function f (x, y) = |x| + |y| in 3-D space, and at least two level
curves in the xy-plane. Use this information to sketch the graph of f in 3-D space.
6. Repeat the previous problem with f (x, y) = |x + y|.

p(x, y)
,

where p(x, y) and q(x, y) are both polynomials. Furthermore, suppose that p(0, 0) = q(0, 0) =
0. Explain how you can use the exponents of the terms in p(x, y) and q(x, y) to make an
educated guess as to whether f (x, y) has a limit as (x, y) → (0, 0), or, if it does not, why it
does not.
