y=3z+4x2
Making Z the subject of the formula, we get
Z=31y−34x2F(x,y)=31y−34x2
The equation to the tangent of the surface is
∂F/∂x(a,b,c)(x−a)+∂F/∂y(a,b,c)(y−b)+∂F/∂z(a,b,c)(z−c)=0
Where
a=0
b=3
c=1
∂F/∂x=3−8x
∂F/∂y=31
The equation of the tangent plane to the surface z=f(x,y) at the point (a,b,f(a,b)) is
∂f/∂x(a,b)(x−a)+∂f/∂y(a,b)(y−b)−z+f(a,b)=0
So the equation of the tangent plane at the point (0, 3, 1) is
3−8(0)(x−0)+31(y−3)−z+1=03−8(0)+31y−1−z+1=00+31y−z=0y−3z=0
