Suppose you are climbing a hill whose shape is given by the equation

z = 1400 − 0.005x2 − 0.01y2,

where x, y, and z are measured in meters, and you are standing at a point with coordinates (60, 40, 1366). The positive x-axis points east and the positive y-axis points north.

(a) If you walk due south, will you start to ascend or descend?

  


At what rate?

vertical meters per horizontal meter

(b) If you walk northwest, will you start to ascend or descend?


At what rate? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

vertical meters per horizontal meter

(c) In which direction is the slope largest?



What is the rate of ascent in that direction?

vertical meters per horizontal meter

At what angle above the horizontal does the path in that direction begin? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

You are studying a plant whose seed shape (round, disc or elongated) and seed color (yellow, green grey) are determined by two different gene loci. The R/r locus controls seed shape and the Y/y locus control seed color. You have some data from single-trait crosses that were carried out by a friend of yours: -Yellow and green seed plants each breed true when self crossed, but grey seed plants produce offspring of all 3 color seeds. -Round seed crossed with...
