5.1 Introduction
In chapter 5, the concepts of increments and differentials of a single variable
functions will be generalized to functions of two or more variables. Given a
function of a single variable )(xfy and a point ))(,( cfc on the curve, the
quantity
)()( 00 xfxxfy
is the change in yalong the curve )(xfy produced by the change x inx

The differential of ywas defined as

and represents the change inyalong the tangent line at cproduced by a change
in x.

Similar terminology is used for a function of two variables, ).,( yxfz That is,
x and y are the increments ofxand y, and the increment of zis z .
Definition
If ),( yxfz , the increment of zdenoted as z is given by
),(),( yxfyyxxfz
Note that the increment z depends on x, y, x and y , and is equal to the
change in zasxchanges by x and ychanges by y . Precisely, the increment in
z refers to the actual change in z when x and/or y changes. To be exact, z
represents the change in the value of z when ),( yx changes from ),( yx to
),( yyxx .

Definition
If ),( yxfz , the total differentialof zdenoted as dzand given by
dyyxfdxyxfdz yx ),(),(
or equivalently,
dyy

zdz
.
This formula represents the estimated change in z.
dzz
In other words, the estimated change in z may be evaluated by using partial
derivatives such that the total change in z (called total differential) is the
summation of the change in zdue to the change inx(keeping yconstant) and the
change in zdue to the change in y (keeping xconstant). The notations dzand
df can be used interchangeably since ),( yxfz .
The above definition can be extended to a function of three or more variables. For
instance, given the function ),,( zyxgw the differential in wdenoted as dw is
given by,
dzgdygdxgdw zyx .
